Ooba, Sparkling Hibiscus Drink

Forgoing the alcohol at a summer event can sometimes make you feel less than festive. One way to get around that is to try a different type of drink. Ooba is the first sparkling hibiscus flower beverage. The drink is made with purified water, hibiscus extract, pure cane sugar and and natural flavor essences. It comes in six flavors blending hibiscus with lime, orange, vanilla, pineapple and blackberry flavors. The makers of Ooba say that the Hibiscus Sabdariffa Extract has benefits including the reduction of high blood pressure and lowering bad cholesterol levels. I can't speak to that but it is pleasant with floral and berry notes and makes a nice change from the usual fare. A 12-pack sells for around $24.
