How to Brew Hibiscus Bora Bora Loose Leaf Tea
A simple, flavour‑forward method for a beautifully balanced cup.
1. Use freshly boiled water
Hibiscus Bora Bora reveals its best colour and fruit intensity when brewed with hot water at its fullest temperature.
2. Measure your tea
Use 3–4 grams (a heaped teaspoon) of loose‑leaf tea for every 200ml of water. This ensures the hibiscus, berries and tropical fruit infuse with the intended strength and sweetness.
3. Steep the tea
Pour boiling water over the blend and steep for 3–4 minutes.
This short infusion keeps the cup lively and bright, with the perfect harmony of hibiscus tartness and natural fruity sweetness.
4. Serve
Hibiscus Bora Bora is naturally sweet due to its blend of berries, apple, papaya and hibiscus, so you won’t need to add sugar. Enjoy its striking purple‑red colour and intensely fruity aroma exactly as it is. What else is great, you can enjoy the delicious fruit once you have done with your tea and snack on the juicy pieces.
Brewing Hibiscus Bora Bora as a Cold Brew
For a beautifully smooth, juicy iced tea:
Use the same amount of tea
Brew in cold water for 12 minutes
Strain and pour over ice
This creates a refreshing, gently tangy drink ideal for hot days.
This fruit infusion offers:
- A bright red infusion

This award‑winning blend is crafted from a kaleidoscope of fruits and flowers: hibiscus blossoms, apple, papaya, currants, elderberries, berries and colourful petals.

Packed with fruit and potentially rich in vitamin C (ascorbic acid), it’s a great option for anyone increasing healthy fluid intake or seeking a soothing bedtime brew. Research suggests that hibiscus tea, due to its naturally occurring anthocyanins, polyphenols and vitamin C, may offer additional wellness benefits, including antioxidant support, improved cardiovascular markers and general immune support.
