Notes

  • Drying: If you use fresh hibiscus flowers, you can dry them on your own by air-drying or oven-drying them. It is an easy process but you need to make sure that they are completely dry before making the powder.
  • Sift: Another optional step in making the powder is straining it after the blending process to remove any larger pieces of dried hibiscus.
  • Remove moisture: Before the process, ensure that no moisture remains in the flowers to prevent mold and extend their shelf life.
