- To make this hibiscus drink, start by taking 3-4 flowers per cup of tea. I took 8 flowers to make 2 cups of tea. Remove the calyx or the green part from which the flower is attached to the plant. Also remove the stamen, the part from which the yellow seeds are attached.
- Wash the petals well under running water and add them to a medium-sized glass bowl.
- Boil 3 cups of water in medium-sized saucepan water and once it comes to a rolling boil, remove it from heat. Pour the boiling water over the petals.
- Cover the bowl and let the colour from the flowers steep into the water. Steep for 10-12 minutes.
- Strain the tea using a tea strainer. Add lime juice to it and mix well. Add honey or sugar, salt, crushed mint leaves, and mix well.
- Now add some ice cubes to the serving glasses, pour the tea and serve.
