The Health Benefits of Hibiscus Tea

Hibiscus tea stands out as a superb choice for summer, thanks to its delightful flavor and impressive nutrient profile.

Nutrient-Rich Powerhouse

One standout feature of organic hibiscus tea is its high vitamin C content. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient known for supporting the immune system, helping skin health, and acting as a potent antioxidant. This makes hibiscus iced tea not just refreshing, but also a great way to boost your body’s defenses during the summer months.

Antioxidants are another key player here. They help combat oxidative stress by neutralizing free radicals in the body. Regular consumption of hibiscus loose leaf tea can contribute to overall well-being by protecting cells from damage and promoting better health.

Unlike sugary sodas, this herbal tea blend provides a satisfying drink without adding extra calories. There's no sugar, no calories, no artificial anything - just pure organic herbs and of their amazing sweetness and flavor.

Complementary Ingredients: Rosehips & Lemongrass

The addition of rosehips and lemongrass in Hibiscus Splash isn't just for taste—these ingredients bring their own set of health benefits:

• Rosehips are rich in antioxidants and vitamin C, enhancing the immune-boosting effects of hibiscus.
• Lemongrass offers anti-inflammatory properties and aids digestion, making it an excellent complement to hibiscus' benefits.
  
  

These herbs contribute to a well-rounded herbal blend that supports overall health while providing a unique flavor profile.

Summer hydration is crucial, especially when engaging in outdoor activities or workouts. The hydrating benefits of Hibiscus Splash come from its natural ingredients that replenish fluids lost through sweat.

• In addition to its blood pressure-reducing effects, the organic hibiscus petals serve as the perfect hydration motivator for those who struggle to reach their daily water intake.

There are many paths to the same place, and that's especially true when it comes to the perfect herbal iced tea recipe! You can brew the tea with boiling water and wait for it to cool before adding ice - or you can brew it as a cold infusion.

If making a traditional hot infusion, add the tea blend to a kettle and strain the leaves out after 15 minutes or so. Allow the brew to cool before adding ice.

If making a cold infusion, mix cold water with the tea blend and place in the fridge for 3 hours+ - overnight. 

Note: When I plan on making and herbal iced tea, I always brew the blend a little stronger to make up for the ice diluting the tea. Feel free to adjust the ratios based on how strong you like your tea.
