At the heart of this exquisite drink lies hibiscus tea, derived from the dried petals of the hibiscus flower. With its deep crimson hue, hibiscus tea is as visually appealing as it is flavorful. Its tart and slightly floral taste serves as a perfect base for a refreshing beverage. Historically, hibiscus tea has been enjoyed across numerous cultures, from North Africa to the Caribbean, often served as a cooling drink during the sweltering heat.

Ingredients
  

4 cups water

1/2 cup dried hibiscus flowers

1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 3-4 lemons)

2-3 cups cold water (to dilute)

Lemon slices (for garnish)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Ice cubes

Instructions
 

Brew the Hibiscus Tea: In a pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and add the dried hibiscus flowers. Allow it to steep for about 15-20 minutes.

    Sweeten the Tea: Strain the hibiscus tea into a large pitcher (removing the flowers) while it's still warm. Stir in the 1/2 cup of granulated sugar until fully dissolved. Let it cool to room temperature.

      Prepare Strawberries: In a blender, add the sliced strawberries and blend until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, you can mash them with a fork instead.

        Combine & Mix: Once the hibiscus tea has cooled, mix in the fresh lemon juice, the pureed strawberries, and add 2-3 cups of cold water to your preferred strength. Taste and adjust the sweetness or citrus level as desired.

          Chill: Refrigerate the pitcher for about 1-2 hours to chill thoroughly.

            Serve: Fill glasses with ice cubes, and pour the chilled hibiscus strawberry lemonade over the ice. Garnish with lemon slices and fresh mint leaves.

              Enjoy: Refresh yourself with this vibrant, tart, and sweet drink!
