Hibiscus Lemonade with Edible Flower Ice Cubes

June 14, 2026

The most beautiful glass of summer you'll ever drink.

There's a certain kind of summer afternoon that calls for something more than just a cold glass of lemonade. The kind where the air is thick and heavy, the bees are pollen-drunk, and you want a drink that feels as good as it looks. This hibiscus lemonade is exactly that.

Made with a cold-brewed Disco Nap Herbal Tea as its base, this lemonade has the deep ruby color and tart, floral punch that hibiscus is beloved for, sweetened just enough with raw honey and poured over the most magical ice cubes you've ever made.

Those would be the edible flower ice cubes, studded with our bestselling Summer Nights Florafetti, melting slowly into your plass like a tiny garden in bloom.

It's two ingredients away from being the most impressive thing you've put on a summer table. And it takes almost no effort. Most of the work happens overnight while you sleep.

Why Cold Brew?

Cold-brewing Disco Nap (rather than steeping it hot) helps to preserve the rich vitamin C content of classically tart hibiscus. Because vitamin C is heat-sensitive, a hot steep results in a brew that's lower in this powerful antioxidant. Cold-brewing pulls out all of that gorgeous color and flavor while keeping things smooth and mellow, full of floral depth, and with the full nutritional benefit in tact.

How To Make Hibiscus Lemonade with Edible Flower Ice Cubes

This recipes requires the edible flower ice cubes and the Disco Nap cold brew be made a day in advance, so plan ahead. Truly, it's worth the wait.

Makes 2 12oz servings.

Ingredients:

For the Edible Flower Ice Cubes:

Summer Nights Florafetti Edible Flowers
Water

For the Hibiscus Lemonade:

2 cups Disco Nap Herbal Tea, cold-infused (2 heaping tablespoons of loose-leaf tea + 2 cups water)
1 cup fresh-squeezed lemon juice (~4 large juicy lemons)
1/4 cup honey, or more to taste

Instructions:

The Day Before:

Prepare the edible flower ice cubes at least a day in advance. Add a sprinkle of Summer Nights Florafetti to each cell in your ice cube tray, fill with water, and freeze overnight.
Make the Disco Nap Herbal Tea cold brew. Add 2 heaping tablespoons of the loose-leaf tea to a pint-size mason jar or a French press. Cover with 2 cups of room-temperature water and allow to infuse for 8-12 hours or overnight.

The Day Of:

Strain the Disco Nap cold brew.
Combine the cold brew with the fresh-squeezed lemon juice, then stir in the honey until dissolved. (1/4 cup of honey makes for a deliciously tart lemonade. Add more honey if you prefer it sweeter.)
Divide into 2 glasses and add a few edible flower ice cubes.
Enjoy on a hot, sunny summer day.
