Thanks to Meghann M for this tea.
I like how the apple pieces float at the top while steeping.
I like hibiscus, I like hibiscus and apple. I do not like this tea, there is an odd citrus note in it. I like sour apple candies but this is more layered – lemon then hibiscus then apple as opposed to a solid sour apple flavor.
