Uses and recipe ideas for hibiscus flowers:
  1. Herbal Tea: Hibiscus tea is a popular beverage made by steeping dried hibiscus flowers in hot water. You can enjoy it hot or cold and add sweeteners like honey or sugar to balance the tartness.
  2. Syrups and Juices: Hibiscus flowers can be used to make syrups and juices, which can be added to cocktails, mocktails, lemonades, or sparkling water for a refreshing and flavourful twist.
  3. Jams and Jellies: The tartness of hibiscus flowers works well in making jams and jellies. You can combine them with other fruits like strawberries or raspberries for a delicious spread.
  4. Desserts: Hibiscus flowers can be incorporated into various desserts. You can infuse the flavour into ice cream, sorbets, puddings, or even use it in cakes, tarts, and pies.
  5. Salad Dressings and Marinades: Hibiscus flower extract or tea can be used to create unique salad dressings or marinades for meats and vegetables. It adds a tangy and floral note to your dishes.
