I created the most delicious, refreshing hibiscus tea with rose, and it has been on repeat because I just can’t get enough! There is a note to mention about the type of hibiscus tea you purchase. Most hibiscus teas are actually mixed with other flavors even though they say hibiscus tea, so be sure to check the ingredients if you want to taste this tea in the true form it was recipe tested on. I like to use this one, it is my absolute favorite! With that said, this tea is guaranteed to be a favorite when serving to friends and family. Your caffeine free friends will especially appreciate it!
If you don’t like the tart after taste the hibiscus tea normally has, you should still give this tea a try because the way I make it, that tartness flavor is almost non existent!
Fun Fact about Hibiscus
Lastly, a fun fact about pronunciation. Did you know that it is pronounced “HI-biscus” and not “HIB-iscus?” It took me a long time to figure that one out, all those baristas were to polite to correct me all those years. 😀 Anyways, with spring in the air and summer around the corner, this easy ice tea recipe is a must try!
