By the way which part of hibiscus we can use?

Regular tea is made out of dried tea leaves. Hibiscus tea is made out of colored flowers. The petals of the flowers are used sometimes fresh and sometimes dried.

What does Roselle taste like?

Roselle has a crisp tart berry and rhubarb taste. They taste like cranberry or pomegranate. The mild sweetness of the hibiscus helps to avoid or reduces the addition of sugar.

They combine with sugar to produce a delicate light flavor. The vibrant color and punch of its taste will make us drink it frequently.

Is Hibiscus and Rosella the same?

The names roselle, rosella, and hibiscus are used interchangeably. Hibiscus flowers are big. The petals are soft to touch and can be easily dried up when you keep them in sun. On the other hand, these roselles are water-rich, thick petals and it has a big seed in the center of the flower. In the scientific view, all true roselle plants are hibiscus plants, but not all hibiscus plants are roselle.
