Homemade Hibiscus Tea

Hibiscus Teas comes from the hibiscus flower. The tea is very red and tart somewhat like cranberry juice. The tea is very good mixed with fresh mint and a little raw honey. I actually enjoy the tartness without the honey but my family likes it a little sweeter so I add a little honey to the tea. Hibiscus teas has many health benefits including lowering cholesterol, blood pressure, clearing acne, moderating body temperature and at my age this is a huge benefit! It is also high in vitamin C and antioxidants so it can help prevent colds. I have been drinking it regularly and have really noticed it helps a great deal with hot flashes. If it helps me I thought I should share it with you or maybe someone you know who can benefit from drinking it as well! The tea really makes a beautiful presentation and it tastes delicious! Here’s to your health.
Bon Appetit,
