Blue pea flowers are abundance in my garden. Instead of making the regular drink, this time I opted to combine with vibrant looking hibiscus. The royal blue of pea flowers and extract of fiery hibiscus made a wonderful flower drink. As we know both hibiscus and blue pea flowers are pack with health benefits. They are excellent source of antioxidants,prevent cancer,boost liver health and assist with weight loss.
Hibiscus being the National flower are easy to find around. They comes in different colors and varieties. As for this particular drink, please use red hibiscus. They are beautiful, good for health and tastes awesome.
