When it’s warm, all you want is a refreshing cool drink. I’ve shared many water infusion and tea recipes but I thought I would share with you another warm-weather favorite of mine from someone very special.
This recipe was from my mother-in-law and gets tweaked a little bit each time I make it.
This Ginger Hibiscus Iced Tea recipe is so refreshing, and with the soothing ginger, detoxing lemon and anti-inflammatory hibiscus, it's also super good for you!
Ingredients
1 tsp green tea
1 tsp diced fresh ginger
1/8th cup dried hibiscus (aka Rosa De Jamaica) You can find these in a health food store- or if you have a friend going on holidays to Central America, get them to bring you a big bag back (that's what I do)
1 lemon
1 litre of boiling water
Directions
Boil water and pour into glass pitcher.
Steep your green tea, ginger and hibiscus in hot water for 10 min (or longer if you like stronger flavor). Quantity of each ingredient can be customized your preference. Since ginger is amazing for digestion, I often add a bit extra.
Pour over ice and squeeze one lemon on top.
Enjoy!
