Equipment
- 1 Glass Pitcher with Infuser
Instructions
- Measure dried hibiscus flowers, depending on how strong you like your tea. This will be just enough for a small batch.
- Using a mortar and pestle, lightly crush the dried hibiscus flowers to release more of their flavor. Add the lightly crushed dried hibiscus flowers into the infuser.
- Pour hot water over the hibiscus flowers from as high as you can manage and let it steep for about 5-7 minutes. The longer it steeps, the stronger the flavor will be. Once it’s done, remove the flowers from the infuser and your tea is ready to enjoy.

- Experiment with Flavors: Try adding a slice of lemon, matcha powder, a touch of honey syrup, or even a few fresh mint leaves to give your tea a fresh twist.
- Serve Hot or Cold: Hibiscus tea can be enjoyed both warm and chilled—try it iced on hot days for a refreshing drink.
- Store Properly: Keep your dried hibiscus flowers in a cool, dry place to maintain their freshness for future use.
