  • Hibiscus flowers

  • Mini rosebuds

These botanicals create a vibrant ruby-red tea with warming spice and delicate floral aroma.


HOW THESE INGREDIENTS WORK TOGETHER

These herbs work synergistically to support circulation and cardiovascular health.

  • Blood vessel support — hibiscus anthocyanins help protect blood vessels and support healthy blood pressure

  • Circulatory stimulation — ginger promotes warming circulation and improved peripheral blood flow

  • Capillary strength — rosebuds contain vitamin C and tannins that support small blood vessels

  • Antioxidant protection — hibiscus and rose provide polyphenols that help reduce oxidative stress

  • Microcirculation benefits — improved circulation can support skin health and overall vitality

Together they create a warming herbal tonic that promotes circulation, vascular strength, and antioxidant protection.


SPLIT EXTRACTION METHOD

Why this tea uses two extraction techniques

Different plant materials release their compounds best at different temperatures.

Roots and peels need simmering heat to release deeper compounds, while flowers require gentler steeping to protect delicate antioxidants and aromatic oils.

Using a split extraction method allows both to be extracted effectively.


STEP 1 — DECOCTION (GINGER ROOTS)

Simmer the roots

  1. Add fresh ginger slices and dried ginger peel to a pot with water

  2. Bring to a boil

  3. Reduce to a gentle simmer

  4. Simmer for 10–15 minutes

This process extracts warming gingerols and deeper root compounds.


STEP 2 — HOT INFUSION (FLOWERS)

Add flowers off heat

  1. Remove the pot from heat after the ginger decoction

  2. Immediately add hibiscus flowers and mini rosebuds

  3. Cover with a lid

  4. Stee p for about 10 minutes

This preserves delicate vitamin C, anthocyanins, and aromatic compounds.
