Looking for a beautiful and delicious mocktail to serve this spring? This is for you!
Just in time for Easter, we’re bringing you this Hibiscus Tea Mocktail, which is as beautiful as it is delicious. The subtle hint of orange juice from the orange juice ice cubes that melt into the chilled tea is the perfect combination. Delicate edible flowers complement the drink, making it the perfect recipe for Easter or your next spring get-together.
We suggest brewing the tea and chilling it a day in advance while you prepare the orange juice ice cubes so it’s easy to serve when it’s time.
