Ready-to-drink hibiscus iced tea is a bottled infusion made with hibiscus, usually sold chilled and often sweetened. Hibiscus gives it a tangy, fruity flavour with a gentle tartness; served cold, it makes a refreshing alternative to conventional iced tea.
It is commonly enjoyed on warm days, with lunch, or as a grab-and-go drink. In places where hibiscus infusions are familiar, it echoes the floral, pleasantly sharp taste of homemade brews, while the bottled version is convenient to serve straight from the fridge. Its energy comes mainly from carbohydrates: it has 28 calories per 100 g. If you prefer a less sweet drink, compare labels or pour it over ice to soften the flavour.
