If you like your tea bright, bold and a little tart, this is your flower.
Hibiscus is loved around the world for its vivid colour and distinctive sweet-tart flavour. It’s also known by names including sorrel, carcadè and Agua de Jamaica, depending on where and how it’s prepared.
Beyond its flavour, hibiscus naturally contains plant compounds called anthocyanins, the pigments responsible for its deep red colour, and it has a long history of use in traditional wellness rituals.
Brew it hot when you want something bright and comforting, or chill it down for an intensely refreshing caffeine-free iced tea. It’s especially good with fresh berries, citrus or a little sweetness to balance its natural tartness.
