Organic Hibiscus

This hibiscus tea tastes exactly like hibiscus should taste. It's so fruity and tart - very well balanced. I like that I can use 10 oz. of water, and it tastes great - it goes really far! This is another Arbor tea that I have tasted for the first time, as I have recently decided to ditch the teas that potentially have pesticides and heavy metals in them. I'm going for safe and organic, which is what I am getting with Arbor Teas. As I go through the teas I'm getting, I'm discovering a lot. This tea is definitely going to be on my regular rotation.

So refreshing that it becomes a daily habit. Wonderful hot and just as good iced, and the beauty of watching it steep is a nice bonus. Since finishing the last bag I have been trying to diversify into other teas but realize that I just want my big bag of Arbor Teas hibiscus again. Thanks for making a wonderful blend!

this tea had a lovely fragrance and good flavor. much like unsweetened cranberries, it was a little more astringent than I recall other hibiscus teas being though. we are still trying out different ways of using this. it was ok hot. it was ok blended into a lemonade cold. we will try it with some of the chamomile mint next.. but its not seeming like this particular tea is going to end up in our long term rotation.

This is one of my Summertime favorites. With the fruit and veggie taste it will make your taste bubs jump for joy. So refreshing ?

This is my go-to favorite iced tea in the summertime! Perfect with some lemon for a little extra kick! Strong enough flavor but not overpowering.

To be fair, I have never liked hibiscus tea. I bought this because I read it was good for me. I've tried other teas - some that contain hibiscus, and one other that is just hibiscus - in addition to this one, and didn't like any of them. I tried this tea hot, with and without honey to sweeten it, and I also tried it iced. The only thing I did not try was using slightly less tea than recommended on the package. Since I prefer my tea a bit weaker than most people, I might like it that way. Either way, I will continue to experiment with it, because I am convinced this is a good tea for me to drink, and I like the fact that it is organic. I may mix a little in with other teas instead of using just hibiscus, too.

I made this as a cold brew iced tea. I tried it without sweetener. Yikes, it is very tart. I added Monk Fruit sweetener which is zero calories. Perfection. Very flavorful. My husband and son also thought it was very good. I will be ordering this in bulk.

I love to put this in my ice tea blends, especially with Chun Mee and Bai Mu Dan. Not only does it give it a fun color but to me it seems to add a bit of sweet flavor. It will overpower Russian Caravan off the charts so I don't put them together in the same batch. What a lovely tea!

I have tried many teas and this has become overall favorite. Arbor Teas is very accurate with their description of the tea being tart with earthy beet-like undertones. The combination of the two hibiscus strains creates such a beautiful and delicious cup of tea.

I ordered the sample size of this one because I’d never made my own hibiscus tea before but I remembered it being quite tart so I wasn’t sure how I’d like it. I’ve heard it called one of the healthiest beverages you can drink due to the antioxidant levels so I really wanted to get into it. Let me say, this one did not disappoint. It was definitely tart but having the full leaves (petals?) I think made it taste better than a ground up version in a tea bag would have. I’ve yet to make it iced but I’m sure it’s delicious that way as well! Unlike a lot of other teas and tisanes however, I’ve found you can’t really double steep hibiscus - the second steep comes out a dull purple color with a very dull flavor. The first steep is all you need with its vibrant red and flavorful taste! Would definitely recommend to anyone trying to add some antioxidants to their life :)

This is my favorite iced tea to have on a hot summer day. Sweet, flowery and delicious!

I am not a fan of Herbal Teas, but this is extraordinary! It is beautiful and delicious (with sugar). It has an intense flavor - on the tart side - but with sugar added , it is satisfying enough to substitute for chocolate or something less healthy when a craving occurs. I'm also pleased to find a tea that will not interfere with the absorption of my vitamin C capsules, and in fact is high in Vitamin C itself. An new staple in my pantry!

This tea had a very velvety aroma to it with a slight tinge of fruit. The tea is a very rich shade of red and steeped beautifully with the taste being tarty and slightly fruity. I was genuinely surprised how strong the tea was, but overall very good.

We are not hot tea drinkers here, so I can't speak to that, but iced, this is WONDERFUL. It's a little tart (which I consider a good thing - and I suppose if I didn't let it steep so long, maybe it wouldn't be, as some have stated) and just amazingly refreshing. I keep reording this one!

This is the best hibiscus tea I have ever had by far! It is almost impossible to over-steep and has the best aroma! It's like drinking a fruit juice!

Loved this!! I love hibiscus in other blends and to have a blend thats basically all hibiscus is wonderfully exotic!! You need to love hibiscus of course but the quality is so great!! It's wonderful! My sample was gone in a snap! Back to buy a large bag! LOVE IT!!

I can't believe how much I love it the first time I try it! It's not only beautiful red in color, the taste is not sharp or tart at all. It's smooth, fruity and slightly citrusy. Just the right balance, I like to make it on the lighter side. So I can drink it all day long. It's very satisfying!

Please hibiscus petals are amazing. They have such a rich flavor and I can almost taste the vitamin C! I know it's not possible, but still. I love mixing hibiscus with peppermint for a wonderful iced tea. I have tried others but nothing beats the quality and taste of these from Arbor Teas.

I have been an aficionado of hibiscus tea for a decade or more, and this version is the best I have ever had! Just opening the bag allows the hibiscus scent to escape, and the hibiscus itself is moist and fresh. And the taste is classic hibiscus. I have nothing to add to the description by the staff, only to recommend that you try it if you've never tried it before (I prefer it myself as a hot tea, but iced would be delicious too, I expect). And, while Arbor Teas likely is prevented from stating so, there are reports of hibiscus tea having a salutary effect on blood pressure, so that 's a bonus. Just google hibiscus and hypertension on Google Scholar for references.
