Hibiscus

Since ancient times, hibiscus has been cultivated for its ornamental beauty and edible fruit. The flowers of this plant also give rise to drinks of great subtlety, to the delight of discerning palates.

The short history of hibiscus infusion

Whether it's called "bissap" in West Africa or "karkadé" in Egypt, hibiscus infusion seduces with its intense red color, its slightly tangy aroma and its numerous health benefits.

To produce high-quality herbal teas, it is customary to use the calyxes of the hibiscus, the fleshy envelopes whose mission is to protect the bud. After drying, these calyxes can then be infused to create infusions with a perfectly captivating taste.

A true powerhouse of antioxidants, hibiscus tea can be enjoyed throughout the day and year-round. Preserve its natural nutritional qualities by storing it away from light and moisture.

In the evening, swap your bissap juice or yourhibiscus infusionfor an original cocktail with hibiscus flowers to add a floral touch to your festive moments.
