KAMPALA | LIFESTYLE UGANDA — If you want to learn how to make tea from hibiscus, you may find it useful to read this article. The following recipe will help you make this wonderful beverage. 

If you want to learn how to make tea from hibiscus, you may find it useful to read this article. The following recipe will help you make this wonderful beverage. 

To make hibiscus tea, you can simply add the dried flowers to an empty teapot. This drink will not have any caffeine, so you don’t have to worry about the sudden energy boost that coffee gives you.

Hibiscus flowers are not poisonous and can be consumed in large quantities. You can make a cup of hibiscus tea by steeping the flowers in boiling water for about five to ten minutes.

The hibiscus flowers will form a velvety-colored drink that is delicious and soothing on a cold winter’s night. Just make sure to cover the brewing vessel to keep it hot.

Rinse the hibiscus petals thoroughly in clean water and transfer them to a kettle. Add the crushed ingredients to the water and allow it to boil for five to six minutes. 

The petals should change color as the water is boiled. You can use a tea filter to remove the petals. Make sure to stir the tea frequently, as it will lose its flavor if steeped for too long.

After steeping, you can strain the tea. To remove the seed pod, you need to make a slit vertically and pop it out. 

If you don’t want to strain the flower, you can also grind the remaining spices into powder. You may add a few pinches of cinnamon powder and some mint leaves.

You can also add lemon juice. You can even add Stevia or another 0-calorie sugar substitute to make your tea sweeter or spicier.

If you’re not a fan of the taste of hibiscus, you can also try making it with honey and agave. Another option is using superfine sugar or honey. 

The sugar will dissolve better in hot drinks than in cold ones. You can also serve hibiscus tea with a slice of lime. For a tasty, refreshing beverage, hibiscus tea should be enjoyed by everyone.

In addition to tasting delicious, hibiscus tea is great for the immune system, blood pressure, and cholesterol. It is also easy to make. 

Hibiscus is a perennial in zones 6b and produces huge blooms during the summer. Hardy Hibiscus grows nine to ten inches in diameter and blooms for over a month. 

In addition to its delicious taste, it is also healthy and low-calorie.

Hibiscus flowers are available at health food stores or a Mexican grocer for as little as $0.99. Once you have purchased them, you can simply steep them in hot water for 10 minutes. 

You can also steep them longer depending on your personal preference. 

To make this beverage, you need to steep the flowers for 10 minutes. This step will add flavor and aroma to the tea. You can then enjoy your cup of hibiscus tea!

Take a look at this article from nowthendigital.com to learn about the process of making tea from hibiscus flowers.
