Citrus first. Floral finish. No caffeine required.
Four ingredients. That's it. Orange, hibiscus, rose hips, and natural orange flavor — and somehow that's enough to brew something that looks like a sunset in a glass and tastes like it too. The orange comes through bright and a little tart, hibiscus adds the deep ruby color and a tangy edge that keeps the whole thing from going flat, and rose hips round it out with a mild sweetness underneath. It's a simple blend that doesn't need to be complicated.
No caffeine means no timing rules. Morning, afternoon, late evening — this one works whenever. Hot it's full-bodied and warming, the citrus and hibiscus coming through clean. Over ice it turns into something closer to a fruit punch that you'd actually want to drink — the color goes deep ruby-red and the flavor gets brighter and more tart as it chills. Cold brew it overnight and it's ready to pour straight over ice with nothing else needed.
Drink it slowly on the porch or pour it over a full pitcher of ice. It holds up either way.

How to Brew
Hot:
1–2 teaspoons per 8 oz of water. Bring water to a full rolling boil (212°F). Steep 5–10 minutes. Shorter steep for a brighter, more citrus-forward cup; longer for more depth and hibiscus intensity.
Iced (hot brew method):
Brew hot as directed with slightly less water than usual. Let it cool, pour over ice. The color goes deep ruby-red chilled and the tartness comes through more clearly — it's a different cup than the hot version in a good way. Works well by the pitcher.
Cold brew:
2 teaspoons per cup of cold water. Refrigerate 8–12 hours. Pull and pour over ice. No gear required — a mason jar or pitcher does the job.
One 2 oz bag makes approximately 22–28 cups depending on brew strength.
Storage Tips
Store in a cool, dry spot away from heat, moisture, and direct light. Reseal the bag after each use. Hibiscus holds its color and flavor best when kept away from humidity.
FAQ
Is this tea caffeinated?
No — this is an herbal blend with no tea base, so it's naturally caffeine-free. Any time of day works.
Does this tea taste sweet without adding sugar?
It has a naturally bright and citrus-forward character with a mild sweetness from the rose hips underneath. No added sugar or sweetener needed — though a small drizzle of honey works well if you want it a little sweeter.
Can I make this iced?
Yes. Brew hot as directed, then let it cool and pour over ice. For a stronger iced version, brew with slightly less water than usual so it doesn't go flat when the ice melts. The color goes deep ruby-red chilled and the tartness gets brighter — it holds up well and works by the pitcher.
Can I cold brew this tea?
Yes. Add 2 teaspoons per cup of cold water, refrigerate for 8–12 hours, and pour over ice. No strainer or special gear required — a mason jar or pitcher works fine.
