Steep dried hibiscus in hot water, then cool it and mix it with blackberries or their juice. Mashing the berries gives a stronger fruit flavor; sweetener is optional.
Usually not: hibiscus and blackberries are naturally caffeine-free. A packaged blend may contain caffeine if it also includes black or green tea, so the ingredients can change the answer.
A hibiscus blackberry drink is usually tart and fruity, with a light floral note from the hibiscus. Blackberries soften the sharpness, while added sweetener makes the finished drink less tangy.
Yes, you can serve a hibiscus blackberry drink warm as well as chilled. Warm it gently after brewing rather than boiling it, which can make the flavor seem harsher.
Yes, sugar is not essential. The drink will taste more tart, especially if the berries are not very ripe; taste it before deciding whether to add a little sweetener.
Yes, frozen blackberries work well in a hibiscus blackberry drink. As they thaw, they release juice and color; you can add them straight to a chilled drink or thaw them first.
No. Hibiscus tea is typically an infusion of hibiscus alone, while a hibiscus blackberry drink includes blackberry flavor or fruit and may also contain sweetener or other ingredients.
Keep homemade hibiscus blackberry drink in a covered container in the refrigerator and drink it within a few days. If you added fresh fruit, check its smell and appearance before serving.
Hibiscus may help lower blood pressure, but the effect is not guaranteed and blackberries do not make it a treatment. If you take blood-pressure medicine or have low blood pressure, ask a clinician before drinking it regularly.
Yes. Mix chilled hibiscus and blackberry concentrate with sparkling water just before serving, so the bubbles remain lively. Add the sparkling water gradually to keep the drink from foaming over.

Hibiscus blackberry drink combines the tart, floral infusion of hibiscus with the dark, fruity flavour of blackberries. Recipes vary: the ingredients may be steeped together or the berries added to a cooled hibiscus infusion, and the drink can be served sweetened or unsweetened. Across the regions where both ingredients are enjoyed, it makes an easy chilled drink; serve it over ice on a warm day or alongside a meal. The listed version is light in fat and provides 32 calories per 100 g. Its fruit and botanical flavours give it plenty of character without needing much added sweetness, so you can keep it lighter by leaving out or reducing the sweetener.
