JI HIBISCUS Recipe

Boil Water

In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.

Add Hibiscus and Spices

Once the water is boiling, add the dried hibiscus petals, dried orange peel, cinnamon stick, cloves, and sliced ginger to the pot.

Steep the Mixture

Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture steep for about 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse.

Strain the Tea

After steeping, remove the pot from heat and strain the liquid through a fine mesh sieve into a large pitcher, discarding the solids.

Add Sweeteners

To the strained hibiscus tea, add honey, sugar, and lemon juice. Stir well until the sweeteners are fully dissolved.

Cool or Serve Warm

You can serve the tea warm or let it cool to room temperature and refrigerate it for a chilled beverage.

Garnish and Enjoy

Serve the tea over ice with additional lemon slices or fresh mint leaves for garnish, if desired.
