Hibiscus tea, also called roselle tea, is an herbal tea made from the hibiscus sabdariffa (or roselle) plant. It has a deep reddish purple color and a tangy flavor. Hibiscus is a common ingredient in herbal teas, where it imparts both a purple color and a tangy quality. Besides being widely used as a beverage (especially in the middle-east, where it is native, and in Central America, where it grows well), hibiscus tea is used for medicinal purposes. It is particularly effective for treating hypertension (high blood pressure). Hibiscus has been shown in controlled clinical trials to be effective for lowering blood pressure, is as effective as at least one prescription drug, and is much safer than any known prescription drugs on the market. It also has other traditional uses, such as to lower fever.
The scientific name for the hibiscus tree is Hibiscus rosa-sinensis.
