Ingredients

- 1/4 cup honey
- 1–2 cups strawberries, cleaned and hulled
- 4 cups cold water
- 1 lemon, juiced
- Fresh mint for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare Your Hibiscus Tea
Start by brewing your Hibiscus Tea. This is the heart of your refresher! Bring water to a boil and pour it over your dried hibiscus petals in a heatproof container. Let it steep for about 10-15 minutes. As you wait, relish the enticing aroma wafting through your kitchen, signaling the delightful infusion that’s to come.
Step 2: Strain and Sweeten
Once steeped, strain the tea to remove the petals. This clear, ruby-colored liquid is your base. Now, if you prefer a hint of sweetness, stir in your choice of sweetener while the tea is still warm, allowing it to dissolve perfectly. Taste it and adjust the sweetness to your liking. The balance of tartness and sweetness will elevate your drink!
Step 3: Chill the Tea
Allow your Hibiscus Tea to cool to room temperature, then transfer it to the fridge. Chilling it will enhance the refreshment factor. This step also gives you time to get excited about the delicious mix you are about to create!
Step 4: Blend the Strawberries
While the tea chills, it’s time to bring in the strawberries! Rinse and hull them before placing them in a blender with a splash of cold water. Blend until smooth, creating a vibrant strawberry puree. The natural sweetness and color of the strawberries will marry beautifully with the tartness of the Hibiscus Tea.
Step 5: Combine and Serve
Once your tea is thoroughly chilled, it’s time to bring everything together! In a glass, alternate layers of chilled Hibiscus Tea and strawberry puree. You can even add some ice for an extra cold and refreshing treat. Stir gently to mix slightly, and there you have it—a gorgeous, refreshing drink ready to be enjoyed!
