Hibiscus is a tropical flower that has a mild, floral flavor. It is an excellent source of antioxidants and has been used around the world for centuries to help reduce blood pressure, improve digestion, and prevent heart disease. The pomegranate, for its part, is a fruit with a sweet and tart flavor that is loaded with antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. It is especially good for heart health and has been shown to reduce inflammation and improve blood circulation.
HIBISCUS Kombucha, deep red in color, is a fermented tea-based drink that is rich in probiotics and has a flavor reminiscent of rosé cava. These beneficial microorganisms help improve digestive health and strengthen the immune system. Additionally, kombucha has a light, effervescent flavor that makes it ideal for mixing with other ingredients. Pairs perfectly with vegan dishes, pasta and rice. It is also perfect to combine with white meats, such as chicken or turkey, and with goat and sheep cheeses. The elixir of youth!
Strawberries are a sweet, juicy fruit that contain antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E, and ellagic acid. These antioxidants help protect the body's cells from damage caused by free radicals, reduce inflammation, and improve heart health. Additionally, strawberries are a good source of fiber, which is essential for healthy digestion.
Licorice powder is derived from the root of the licorice plant and has been used for centuries for its medicinal properties. It is known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antiviral effects. Licorice powder can also help reduce stress and anxiety, improve digestion, and reduce menstrual pain.
The freshness of this recipe suitable for all audiences and palates based on our HIBISCUS Kombucha, infused with hibiscus and pomegranate juice, is provided by strawberries, fresh ginger, licorice powder, vanilla and lime.
It is perfect for this spring, a summer lunch, a dinner with friends or simply to relax at home after a long day. Plus, it's easy to make and can be adapted to your personal tastes.
