Herbal Rosella Tea Recipe


Rosella (aka wild hibiscus) fruit tea is one of the herbal teas the Food Forest Kitchen serves for free to our guests. The tea is known as Cha Krajiab in Thai. Rosella Tea is a simple drink to make. The dried flowers of the Rosella are boiled in water, making a bright red drink that has a sour, tart flavor similar to cranberry. You can find the rosella plants everywhere on the premises of Eco-Logic and the Thai Child Development Foundation. More information about the rosella plant can be found here.
