Hibiscus Lemonade (Easy Recipe!)

When I first started to experiment with using hibiscus in food and drink recipes, I didn’t know what to expect. A great example of what I mean by that is this easy recipe for making a sweet and tangy hibiscus lemonade. The floral notes of the hibiscus pair well with the lemon juice without overpowering the drink–a must-try for those who are new to experimenting with hibiscus.

Also try our Blueberry Lemonade (tangy with the perfect amount of sweet, Strawberry Lemonade (classic) and Ginger Cucumber Lemonade (for ginger lovers).

How to Make Hibiscus Lemonade

On top of using dried hibiscus flowers in this recipe, everything else that goes into making the lemonade is 100% natural as well.

Thankfully, you won’t be needing much else to whip up this lemonade from scratch: four cups of water, two lemons, and ⅓ cup or so of raw honey.

  1. The recipe calls for 4 cups of water, but the recipe only seems to use two (to boil/steep dried hibiscus in) Where’d the other two cups go? I’m assuming the remaining two cups goes in with the lemon juice and honey🤷‍♀️???
