The part of the hibiscus plant that protects and supports the flower is called the calyx. It is these dried calyces that are used to brew hibiscus tea. Hibiscus tea is an herbal tea made as an infusion of deep magenta-colored calyces and water. Combined, these two make a delicious cup of red tea. It is rejuvenating, brilliant and deep red in color. Historically, hibiscus tea has been used in African countries to decrease body temperature, and soothe a sore throat. Hibiscus tea, tastes tart, similar to cranberry, and may be consumed hot or iced. To brew, bring 8 fluid ounces of water to a boil. Next, add one to three teaspoons of hibiscus cut and sifted flowers to the water. Let the mixture steep for three to five minutes, and remove the cut and sifted flowers.
