Hibiscus Flowers Powder (1 lb) 1 Pound

Size:1 Pound Culinary Preparations – Sprinkle into fruit drinks, smoothies
yogurt and cereals. Powdered hibiscus may also be encapsulated as a dietary
supplement. Hibiscus flowers are the main ingredient in many wonderfully
refreshing teas made around the world, especially in Mexico, Latin America,
and North Africa. A tea known as Agua de Jamaica, or simply Jamaica in Mexico,
is usually served chilled with copious amounts of sugar to sweeten the natural
tartness of the hibiscus. Powdered hibiscus flower has beautiful color and
texture and is an easy way to add tart, berry-like flavor and a boost of
vitamin C to foods and beverages. Hibiscus is also a source of naturally
occurring bioflavonoids & vitamin C. Blend with Rose Hips and make a tasty
“immunity tea” the whole family can enjoy! Hibiscus flower powder can also be
used as a natural blusher. Simply mix a small amount of the powder with a
little arrowroot powder until the desired shade is achieved. Precautions –
Hibiscus flowers are often intercropped with peanuts. Occasionally fragments
of peanut shells are present. Caution for individuals with severe peanut
allergies.
