Questions people ask
Is roselle the same as hibiscus?
Yes, this is the hibiscus used for drinks - Hibiscus sabdariffa. It is the same thing sold as roselle in Singapore and Malaysia.
Why is it so sour?
That is the plant. Rock sugar or honey is normal, and it takes more sweetening than you expect.
How far does this pack go?
At the quantity in the instructions above, about 250 brews from this pack.
Is the bigger pack cheaper?
This one works out at S$4.60 per 100 g. One Sunny lists most items in more than one size, so compare that figure rather than the pack price.
