A refreshing, vitamin C rich hibiscus herbal infusion
After blooming, the hibiscus flower remains on the tree only for a day. This fact has granted its blossoms a mystical symbolism in different cultures. A pink-colored infusion, bursting in vitamin C, comes to us from Malawi, where a small farmer community carefully removes the bright calyx of the flower by hand. Its taste, a mix of sour and sweet, makes it refreshing and thirst quenching.
