Provided by Ishani Bose

Categories     Beverage

Total Time 25 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tsp dried hibiscus flowers
1 cup boiling water
cinnamon stick (optional)
clove (optional)
tea bag (optional)
lime wedges (optional)
ginger (optional)
mint leaves (optional)

Steps:

  • On the stove, keep a pot of water to boil. Meanwhile, keep all the ingredients ready for the recipe, if you haven't.  
  • Take 2 tsp of dried hibiscus flowers, which equals to 10 ml of the same (to be more accurate), and add it to the boiling water. You are free to add more or less of the hibiscus flowers, depending on how strong you want your tea to be. It's important to note here that hibiscus tea doesn't have caffeine, so adding a lot of it won't harm your health. 
  • Once the water is boiled, pour the water slowly and steadily into a teapot. Make sure you have worn mittens/gloves to protect your hands from any kind of burns. 
  • If you want to add caffeine to your tea, add a teabag to the concoction. Allow it to steep for five minutes.  While you wait, the hibiscus flowers will give the water a somewhat sharp, zingy taste.  If you wish your tea to be strong, allow it to steep for more than 5 minutes.
  • Once done, pour the tea into your cup, using a metal strainer. If your teapot has an in-built filter, the process will be way easier. Some people like to chew the hibiscus petals and don't prefer to strain them. You can try that as well if you like.
  • Don't forget to add your preferred sweetener to the beverage. Try it with honey if you can, as it goes very well with the zestfully tart flavor of the tea. You can add sugar or stevia as well, depending on your choice.
