- Dried hibiscus flowers: 1 cup
- Cinnamon: 1-inch piece or 2 teaspoons powder
- Ginger: 1/2-inch piece
- Honey or palm jaggery: According to taste
First, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. When the water starts to boil, add the hibiscus flowers, cinnamon, and ginger. Let it boil for about 5 minutes. Then, turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let it steep for 15-20 minutes. Keep in mind that leaving the flowers in the water for too long can make the tea bitter, so be mindful of the time. After this, strain it and squeeze the ginger and cinnamon well to release the full flavor. Now add honey or jaggery for sweetness.
