Roselle Hawthorn Jelly 洛神花山楂果冻
The 2 big packets of dried roselle flowers and dried hawthorn berries from my friend came in just the right time for me to make Roselle Hawthorn Jelly. This recipe only features 6 ingredients. First of all you need to pre-boil the dried roselle flowers and dried hawthorn berries with water for about 30 minutes. Then strain the mixture and make the jelly by boiling the roselle water with agar agar powder, konnyaku powder and sugar for a few minutes. Then pour the roselle liquid into serving cups to set in the chiller. The sourish taste of this healthy Roselle Hawthorn Jelly is very refreshing in this hot weather.
Roselle or Hibiscus tea, made from dried parts of the hibiscus plant, is deep red in color. It has sweet and tart flavors, similar to cranberry, and may be consumed hot or iced.
Benefits: decrease body temperature, treatment of high blood pressure and high cholesterol, treat heart disease and sooth sore throat.
Benefits: Hawthorn berry is clinically proven to help improve cardiovascular health, chest pain (angina), blood pressure and high cholesterol. Plus, its antioxidant activity makes it a great choice to support overall wellness and quality of life.
