Ingredients
- 1 cup hibiscus tea, brewed and cooled

- Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions
- Begin by brewing 1 cup of hibiscus tea. Use dried hibiscus flowers or tea bags, and steep them in hot water according to the package instructions. Once brewed, allow the tea to cool to room temperature or refrigerate to speed up the cooling process.

- Prepare two serving glasses. Fill each glass halfway with the hibiscus and honey mixture.
- Top off each glass with sparkling water to add a refreshing fizz. Adjust the amount of sparkling water to your taste preference.
- Garnish each glass with fresh mint leaves for an aromatic touch and a pop of color.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Honey Hibiscus Rose Mocktail!
Tips
- Choosing the Right Hibiscus: For the best flavor, use high-quality dried hibiscus flowers or premium tea bags. The fresher the hibiscus, the more vibrant your mocktail will taste!
- Cooling the Tea: If you're short on time, cool the brewed hibiscus tea quickly by placing it in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes. This will help you assemble your mocktail faster.
- Sweetness Level: Adjust the amount of honey based on your taste preference. If you like it sweeter, feel free to add a little more, or substitute with agave syrup for a vegan option.
- Garnishing: Fresh mint leaves not only enhance the presentation but also add a refreshing aroma. Consider adding edible flowers for an extra touch of elegance!
- Sparkling Water: Experiment with flavored sparkling water, such as lemon or lime, to add an extra layer of flavor to your mocktail.
- Serving Suggestions: Serve your mocktail in clear glasses to showcase its beautiful color, and consider pairing it with light appetizers for a delightful experience.
