Amazing start to this great sunshine βοΈ week drinkslovers friends. Hope you are all warmed to good energy to this new day.
The weather looks so warm today that I made a healthy tea with lots of plants π± combination. One that serves as an infused tea, drink or even juice π₯€, but with healing ingredients for our immune system.
Hibiscus tea with cloves, cinnamon, turmeric and touch of citrus π flavor is a healthy refreshing herbal infused beverage that can be enjoyed either hot π₯΅ or cold π₯Ά.
Hibiscus πΊ is a drink I love either as tea or juice because of the ruby red color to the distinct tart flavor that makes it delicious and thoroughly enjoyed. The flavor being similar to that of raspberries and cranberries , but infusing it with fruits and spices elevates this drink to make it the best hibiscus tea.
And this drink can be enjoyed all year-round as a comforting hot tea during the chilly months or as a sweet cold brew in the spring and summer, which is what this juice represents as spring is around the corner. That is the beauty of this delicious flower πΊ. It can be prepared in so many different ways and all variations taste so amazing.
