The Benefits of Highbiscus CBD Tea
Known for its vibrant red color, hibiscus flowers thrive in a tropical climate and is a common tea worldwide. Hibiscus tea is made from dried parts of the hibiscus flower. It has a naturally sweet but tart flavor and offers a similar flavor profile to cranberries. It is ideal for blending into herbal infusions, syrups, or even dying fabrics. Interestingly, there are over 200 species of Hibiscus flowers and they are grown in mostly tropical areas, with very few varieties able to grow in cold temperatures. Hibiscus flowers are used for so many different teas in Mexico, Latin America, and North America. Hibiscus tea is often referred to as Aga de Jamaica, and is usually served chilled with sugar to sweeten the natural tart flavor.
Hibiscus is high in vitamin C which supports a healthy immune system. Hibiscus tea is also full of phytochemicals, like polyphenols and anthocyanins, which are commonly known as antioxidants. Antioxidants help protect against the effects of oxidative stress that occurs naturally in the body.
This blend also features dried cranberry, a powerful superfood. Native to eastern North America, cranberries are edible, tart berries you’ve likely enjoyed on Thanksgiving. Cranberries are a very popular superfood in their own right, though. Like hibiscus, they are high in nutrients and antioxidants, and on its own, research has linked the nutrients of cranberries to help with urinary tract infections.
Next, The Brothers add a variety of other herbs and flavors. Stevia, for example, is known for its delightful taste. It has been used for thousands of years by the Guarani tribe for its health benefits and cut the bitterness of teas, and is often touted as a safe and healthy sugar substitute. Lemongrass is an aromatic and uplifting herb. Spearmint is a smooth and bright flavor that offers a refreshing and inspiring flavor.
When should I drink Highbiscus?
Highbiscus is caffeine free, so it’s easy to drink any time of day. The Brothers suggest even brewing it hot and adding ice for a lovely iced tea moment. Remember, each bag can be used up to 2-3 times (and be sure to press and massage the bag with a spoon for maximum benefit!)
