Cherry hibiscus iced refresher made with Scarlet Sunrise whole-leaf infusion

Cherry Hibiscus Refresher with Scarlet Sunrise

A vivid, tart-and-fruity iced drink built around Scarlet Sunrise, our whole-leaf blend of farm-grown young greens, hibiscus, rose petals, rose hips and cinnamon.

Ingredients

  • 3 g loose Scarlet Sunrise, or 2 pyramid sachets
  • 250 ml hot water
  • 1½ tablespoons organic cherry juice
  • Ice cubes
  • Lemon slice, for garnish
  • Fresh mint leaves, optional
  • Sweetener to taste, optional

Method

1. Infuse Scarlet Sunrise

Bring the water to a boil, then let it cool for 2–3 minutes. Add Scarlet Sunrise and allow it to steep while the water cools so the hibiscus, rose and cinnamon flavours have time to develop.

2. Chill

Remove the sachets or strain the loose leaves, then refrigerate until fully chilled.

3. Add cherry and serve

Stir in the cherry juice. Fill a glass with ice and pour the chilled infusion over top. Garnish with lemon or mint if desired.

Scarlet Sunrise brings its own tart hibiscus character and deep ruby colour, so a small amount of cherry juice is enough to shift the drink toward a fuller fruit profile.
