Folere/Hibiscus Tea
This easy and refreshing Hibiscus Tea recipe is perfect for any season, but it has a special place in my heart during the holidays. Folere, also known as Zobo or Sorrell, is a drink made from the petals of Hibiscus. Its festive color palette also holds a bold flavor in taste as well. Enjoy hints of fresh pineapple, orange, and mint all sweetened with honey. You can serve it cold or hot (and even with a splash of rum!). Whichever way you like, entertain your guests with this stress-free and budget-friendly recipe that is sure to give them a culinary experience they'll never forget.
