Hibiscus Iced Tea (caffeine free)

Iced tea is a summer staple and this recipe combines a wonderful rich colour of hibiscus with a healthy boost of turmeric and ginger. This is has a rich twangy flavor, perfect for hot summer days or steamy evenings. Green rooibos is a caffeine-free herb that has a mild green-tea like flavour and contains antioxidants as well as minerals and flavonoids. I like using green rooibos because caffeine-free means we can drink iced tea into the evening!

Ингредиенты

  • 1/2 cup dried hibiscus
  • 1" of fresh ginger sliced (or 1 Tbsp of dried ginger)
  • 1" of fresh turmeric, grated (don't substitute powdered for fresh - if you don't have it, leave it out!)
  • 2 Tbsp dried citrus peel
  • 1-2 Tbsp green rooibos (or you can use green tea for a mildly caffeinated version)
  • 1/2 cup honey (more or less to taste)
  • Juice of 1 lime

Инструкции

  1. Using a half gallon canning jar or heat safe pitcher add your hibiscus, ginger, turmeric, citrus peel, and rooibos.
  2. Pour about 2 quarts of water from a hot kettle (hot not boiling) over your herbs in the jar/pitcher, and let steep about 15-20 minutes.
  3. Strain with a fine strainer.
  4. Add your honey and freshly squeezed lime juice while still warm, and stir.
  5. Chill and serve over ice!
  6. This recipe is made a bit concentrated so that when poured into a cup of ice it doesn’t taste watery. If you are drinking it un-iced right out of the fridge, you may want to dilute a bit, to taste!
