Hibiscus - Loose Leaf Organic Herbal Tea

The Hibiscus Tea Is Delicious

We had a hibiscus tea drink at a Mexican restaurant and we liked it so much that we wanted to recreate it at home. I have purchased great loose teas from Good Life Tea in the past, so I ordered the hibiscus tea. It arrived looking beautiful, clean, and well-packaged. My husband makes it into a cold brew, using a glass pitcher that we purchased from Good Life Tea many years ago. Then he mixes it with agave syrup, and it is just as delicious as the drink we had at the Mexican restaurant. It is a real treat!

Good Alone or With Some "Friends"

I found that for my taste, a chilled or cold brew is more to my liking. I did try it warm once and found it wasn't my cup of tea (sorry - couldn't resist). I also found that a moderate steep time is best; otherwise it leaves a slightly bitter aftertaste. I will also use it in one of my blends: 3-4 teaspoons of GLT's Egyptian Chamomile, 1-2 teaspoons of Peppermint, and 3-4 individual dried hibiscus buds. I will put it in a 48 ounce glass pitcher and sun brew for about 4 hours or so. The quality of the tea is top shelf and by far, the best I've found. That translates to a great beverage to enjoy later on.

I love this tea. We first had this tea in Egypt and I am glad we could get it here too.
