Today I created this delicious & fun drink that is both thirst quenching & healthy for these hot summer days. It has Hibiscus Flowers, Apple, Lemon and a small amount of Stevia to sweeten. It is not only a beautiful, impressive drink, but delicious, fun and healthful. Kids and adults alike will love its taste, and the drink is a healthy alternative to high-sugar fruit punches. The punch has a vibrant, deep-red color that makes it look like traditional fruit punch. You can watch the video below to show the health benefits of Hibiscus Herbal Tea.

Strain tea through nut milk bag and mix with the other 3 cups of tea. Add ice and enjoy. Garnish with lemon slices. If you have a juicer, you can juice the apples and add to the drink instead of blending and straining through a nut milk bag.
