Nigerian Zobo Drink (Sorrel Drink)

Nigerian zobo drink, an ox-red or burgundy drink, is also known as traditional iced tea, sorrel or bissap.

It is simple to prepare at home and an amazingly refreshing treat to offer guests. Children adore this healthy, medicinal beverage (yes, it has no added sugar) because it colors their tongues and it’s super tasty.

Enjoy this delicious sorrel drink recipe!
