Instructions

Step 1: Brew the Hibiscus Tea

Bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Remove from heat and add hibiscus tea bags (or dried flowers). Let steep for 5–7 minutes depending on how strong you like it. Remove tea bags or strain, then allow the tea to cool completely.

Step 2: Make the Strawberry Purée

Wash and slice the strawberries, then blend them with 1/4 cup of the cooled hibiscus tea until smooth. For a smoother drink, strain through a fine mesh sieve if desired.

Step 3: Combine Everything

In a pitcher, mix the remaining hibiscus tea, strawberry purée, lemon juice, and maple syrup. Stir well until fully combined.

Step 4: Adjust Flavor

Taste and adjust as needed—add more maple syrup for sweetness or more lemon juice for extra tartness.

Step 5: Serve

Pour over ice and garnish with fresh strawberries, lemon slices, and mint leaves for a refreshing finish.
