Hibiscus tea is a very unique and flavorful tea. Made from the died petals of the Hibiscus flower, its intense bright red color make it stand out from many other fruity tea contemporaries. Bright notes of lemon, cranberry, and cherry are perfectly blended with exquisite floral notes ensure the flavor is just as bright as its steeped color. As you might expect there is a certain sour element that intensifies as the tea steeps longer instead of getting bitter like most varieties of tea. It is quite a unique characteristic that some find quite tasty. If you are not a fan of the more sour notes a pinch of sugar balances it out quite nicely into a pleasant floral profile. When brewing Hibiscus is a beauty to watch. Pouring water over the tea instantly turns the water a light blue tinge. Then, as the tea steeps, the signature rich red color slowly swirls out of the tea like red food coloring in water. As the tea brews longer the red continues to intensify until it reaches a deep red like wine. This is also an indicator of how sour the tea will be. Overall, Hibiscus is a unique and wonderful tea that is a treat for both the eyes and the tongue.
