Ingredients

Hibiscus 3 tbsp. l
Water 1 liter
Sugar or honey taste

Cooking method

  • Hibiscus has gained popularity in Arab countries due to its ability to quickly quench thirst, both hot and cold. There are several options for brewing tea *. I like this option (although not as healthy as steeping in cold water)
  • It is better to take glass or ceramic dishes for brewing. So, pour water into a saucepan, add hibiscus. Boil. Boil for 5 minutes, not moreotherwise the drink will take on a bluish tint. Turn off the fire, add sugar or honey to taste, strain. You can drink it hot or cold. I like the second option better
  • Hibiscus
  • Hibiscus

The dish is designed for

3-4 servings

Note

* In addition to the variant proposed above, there are also the following:
1) The most popular is just pour boiling water over the tea leaves and let it brew for 5 minutes
2) The most useful is to pour cold water over the tea leaves for several hours or overnight.

Hibiscus Is a deep red tea drink made from the flowers of the Sudanese rose (scientific name Hibiscus).
Hibiscus has got many names with its distribution around the world. This drink is most popular in Arab countries. The homeland of hibiscus is India, and it is most popular in countries such as Egypt and Sudan. In Egypt, hibiscus is called "the drink of the pharaoh."
Hibiscus flowers are harvested and dried to make hibiscus. Hibiscus drink has a sour taste and many beneficial properties.
Substances, thanks to which hibiscus has a red color, strengthen the walls of blood vessels. Hibiscus helps to lower blood pressure, has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract and liver, promotes better bile production, and has an antibacterial effect.
Vitamins and trace elements contained in hibiscus improve immunity, increase the body's resistance to colds, and reduce nervous tension. In Arab countries, hibiscus is called "the cure for all diseases"

Rita, I met such information that someone who has a high should drink cold, someone who has a low should drink hot
But I lean towards this
There is a fairly common misconception associated with the effect of hibiscus flower drink on blood pressure depending on its temperature. Many people mistakenly believe that hot tea raises blood pressure, while cold tea, on the contrary, lowers it. This statement is unfounded from a physiological point of view, since, firstly, tea enters the stomach at about the same temperature, and secondly, certain substances contained in the drink, for example, gamma-linolenic acid, vitamin P, affect the pressure level , anthocyanin, carbolic acid and flavonoids, not the temperature of the liquid itself.

Natalia, agree! But I love coffee, so I can't deny myself
NatalyMur
Elven, I also love coffee, and I drank it around the clock before. And now on the weekend I can limit myself to one cup. And this is thanks to the hibiscus

(and also the fact that a good millstone coffee grinder is dead, but ordinary grinding does not like it).

The most useful is to pour cold water over the tea leaves for several hours or overnight.
No honey / sugar - what does the taste look like? Is it real to drink like that or absolutely "tasteless"?
The proportions are the same 3 tbsp. l / 1l. water?

How long is an infused drink stored without losing its beneficial properties? If you don't drink right away?

It is also better to eat the caught brewed flowers, since they contain a lot of useful substances.
Can it be soggy (soaked) when brewed cold?

Unfortunately, I cannot help you, I haven’t tried to do that. This information was taken from the internet

The taste is sour. Refreshing.
Hibiscus as a hibiscus, the same as if you brew and cool with hot water.
I can't tell the truth about the proportions.
I pour the petals into a jug, over the eye, and fill it with cold water, drink the next day.

And why do it in such quantities that you need to store it, do your daily rate and storage is not required.
I have a 1.7 liter jug, and I drink it a day. I drink this drink only in summer.
You can chew soaked petals, they are also sour.
