Hibiscus (Hibiscus sabdariffa): Rich in antioxidants, hibiscus is known for its potential to lower blood pressure and support heart health. Its anti-inflammatory properties may also aid in reducing bloating and promoting digestive wellness.
Green Tea (Camellia sinensis): Celebrated for its high content of catechins, green tea supports metabolism and provides a gentle energy boost without the jitters associated with higher-caffeine beverages.
Apple: Adds natural sweetness and a refreshing flavor, complementing the tartness of hibiscus and the subtle bitterness of green tea. Apples are also a source of dietary fiber and vitamin C.
