Rose water lemonade {with spherical hibiscus mint ice}

Ok, I might need to just make a website just on spherical ice, isn’t this just to fun? Thanks to my sister Paisley for helping me out on these! Check out this cold brew earl grey latte with sheprical coffee bomb.

I even made some spheres with edible flowers in it and we dropped them in a big lemonade dispenser and it looked so beautiful. That will have to be the next post.

Perfect for these hot summer days!!

Spherical Hibiscus mint ice.

Hibiscus has high antioxidants compounds known as anthocyanins and quercetin glucoside, thats why it has such a beautiful color! It’s also the reason it has so many health benefits. Antioxidants are antibacterial, antimicrobial, and fight off free radicals found in our bodies, making hibiscus a great detoxifying beverage (or spherical ice:). Mint also has a lot of health benefits, like Digestion aid, Treats colds and fevers, Cooling and/or warming effect, Boost metabolism, Anti-cancer properties, Reduces headaches, Treats acne, and more.

How to make this delicious drink:
