The Heath Benefits Of Hibiscus Tea...

Hibiscus herbal tea is made from the dried sepals of the roselle flower, otherwise known as Hibiscus sabdariffa. Sepals enclose and protect the flower’s petals before they appear. They also provide support for the petals after the flower blooms.

Hibiscus is tart and fruity flavored and makes a wonderful tea. Add about a tablespoon of dried Hibiscus flowers to a cup of boiling water. Let steep for 10 minutes. If you prefer cold tea, let cool to room temperature before adding ice cubes. Sweeten with a healthy sweetener if desired.
