Hibiscus

Hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis)

Hibiscus is a versatile flower celebrated across cultures for its vibrant color and refreshing tart flavor. In Mexico, it's famously enjoyed as Agua de Jamaica, a sweetened, iced beverage with a flavor similar to mild cranberry juice, perfect for quenching your thirst on a warm day. 

Beyond its culinary uses, hibiscus has a rich history in traditional practices. Hibiscus is classified as a cooling herb in Traditional Chinese Medicine, making it an ideal herb for the hot summer months.

 In India, the dried flowers are used to create a paste that’s applied to the scalp, nourishing the hair and promoting scalp health. Its rich red hue also makes hibiscus an ideal natural tint for homemade cosmetics.

Hibiscus is rich in antioxidants, which help protect the body from oxidative stress and support overall health.

Whether steeped into tea or used in beauty rituals, hibiscus is a beloved flower that offers both flavor and function.
