Roselle Tea

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. This drink is particularly good for people who have a tendency, temporary or otherwise, toward water retention: it is a mild diuretic.

Price & Size :


Quantity :  

Other names:
Eggplant Rose, Hibiscus Sabdariffa, Mei Gui Qie, Hibiscus Spice tea

Taste:
Reddish-brown hue with a natural lemony sweet taste. We recommend adding a bit of rock sugar to it or blend it with a black tea or Chrysanthemum tea. This tea serves well hot or cold.

Appearance:
Dried dark red Roselle Rose.

Origin:
China

Brewing Guide:
Rinse tea cup and teapot with hot water. Use about 2 teaspoons for every 500ml of water. Infuse in hot water at 90°c (194°F) to 95°c (203°F) for 2 to 4 minutes for the first and second brewing. Gradually increase steeping time and temperature for subsequent brewing.

 

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.
