My amazing drink today is Zobo, zobo is a common drink known in Africa and it's a nutritional drink made from hibiscus flower, it's rich in a lot of vitamin and it's good for both children and adult consumption.
SUGAR.
I used sugar as part of my sweetner.
HIBISCUS FLOWER.
This was when it was still on the cooking gas for 15 to 20 minutes. I kept on stiring it evenly so that it will cook to a very maximum amount.
The leftover of the hibiscus flower with other ingredients already put in it.
When spices are added to zobo drink, it can also be used as natural preservatives and these spices also have their benefits to the body.

In this particular drink I made I added ginger, cloves, cinnamon, Aiden fruits and some sugar to it, the scent and taste it gave me after boiling everything together for about 15minutes was amazing.
- At this point I also added more sweetener. Just to make it more edible and more tasty and also at a moderate point.
I tasted it so that I will be able to determine the ratio of the sweetener before I can conclude if it is ready for consumption.
I also ensured that when I'm preparing this drink it is off very good hygiene. All the utensils are also very clean. It is recommended that you double check what you are using before the drink preparation, during the drink preparation and after the drink preparation for a very good hygiene purpose.
