Notes
- Strainer technique: If you do not have an infuser at home, you can simply steep the hibiscus in hot water and strain with a fine mesh strainer to separate the flowers from the liquid, pouring the tea into a pitcher or directly into cups.
- Add more flavor: You can add more flavor to your hibiscus tea by squeezing lime juice and lemon juice. You can also add a cinnamon stick and some fresh sweeteners or simple syrup to taste. You can enjoy the tea with honey, agave, and stevia powder.
- Cold brew method: You can do a cold brew where you steep the hibiscus flowers in cold water overnight and chill them in the fridge for a milder, smoother flavor.
