Peach Hibiscus Sunset Tea
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup dried hibiscus flowers (preferably whole or loosely packed)
- 2 cups water
- 1 large peach (ripe, peeled and chopped)
- 1–2 tablespoons honey or sugar (to taste)
Instructions
- Combine water and dried hibiscus flowers in a medium saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
- Once the water starts bubbling and turns a deep crimson, remove from heat and cover. Allow the hibiscus to steep for 10-15 minutes, watching the color intensify to a rich magenta shade.
- While the tea steeps, chop the fresh peach into small cubes, watching the juice begin to pool on the cutting board.
- Strain the hibiscus tea through a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher, pressing lightly to extract as much color and flavor as possible.
- Add the chopped peaches to the hot hibiscus tea, and stir well to incorporate the fruit’s aroma and sweetness.
- Stir in honey or sugar until dissolved, adjusting sweetness to your taste while the mixture remains warm.
- Let the tea cool slightly or chill in the refrigerator if serving iced. The peaches and hibiscus will infuse further, deepening the sunset hues.
- Pour the tea into glasses or cups, and enjoy the vibrant color with a fragrant, floral aroma.
