Roselle Tea


(rating: 4 out of 5)

Roselle Tea is believed to also reduce cholesterol. Roselle Tea is also known to help circulatory insufficiencies, helps loss-weight and keeps body fit. Roselle tea is high in vitamin C.

Im used to getting a very red brew from hibiscus, but this came out pale. The liquid is very sour. Im impressed that the roselles came intact in whole form, though.
