Sparkling Rose & Hibiscus Iced Tea

Rose - the queen of the heart - is delicious, cooling, and soothing. 

Packed with vitamin C and antioxidants, the sour and astringent nature of joyful hibiscus does wonders in cooling the body, while being supportive to the immune system.

A bit of jasmine green tea adds to the floral notes, while giving a minimal jolt of caffeine, if you wish.

I'm turning to this delicious, heart lifting recipe over and over this year, whilst enjoying the patio on a hot summer day.
