These hibiscus flower petals come from the Roselle plant which is a species of hibiscus which looks like a scruffy shrub and not like the exotic flowers we may see on holiday! Nevertheless this plants produces flavoursome flowers that have been brewed into a vibrant, refreshing tea for centuries in North Africa.The flavour of hibiscus is complimented and enhanced by the inclusion of rose hip when making a herbal tea.

An infusion of hibiscus flowers adds flavour to jam, jelly and desserts such as Granita. Spices such Ginger, Allspice and Cinnamon all work well with hibiscus.

1. Use recently boiled water.
2. Spoon 1-2 teaspoons per person in a teapot or mug.
3. Allow to brew for 3-4 minutes before removing the petals.
4. Add honey or other sweet syrup to taste if you wish.
