Day #10 is another hibiscus heavy herbal (only two so far though). It really shouldn’t have this much hibiscus. Or I really shouldn’t be using two teaspoons. I wouldn’t mind hibiscus if it just wasn’t this MUCH. Maybe I should try adding rock sugar to these kinds of teas? It’s a really gorgeous blend to look at as a dry leaf — shades of burgundy with the big cranberry pieces. And since there was cranberry, another reason for the hibiscus to be lessened a little. I could taste a little cranberry and fruit flavor from the other elements…. but mostly hibiscus. Anyway, the hibiscus isn’t as bad as it could be.
Steep #1 // 2 teaspoons // couple minutes after boiling // 5 minute steep
Hmm, maybe one teaspoon is enough unless you are making a teapot.
