Hibiscus Soda Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

1

Make Hibiscus Concentrate

In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and add the dried hibiscus flowers. Let steep for about 15-20 minutes.

2

Strain and Sweeten

After steeping, strain the hibiscus tea into a bowl or pitcher, discarding the flowers. While the liquid is still warm, stir in the sugar until dissolved. Add lemon juice to the mixture.

3

Cool the Concentrate

Allow the hibiscus concentrate to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes.

4

Combine with Sparkling Water

In a glass, combine 1/4 cup of the chilled hibiscus concentrate with 1/2 cup of sparkling water. Adjust sweetness if desired.

5

Serve

Add ice cubes to the glass, garnish with fresh mint leaves, and serve immediately.
