Usage: The following are instructions on how to mainly use roselle concentrate and some alternative recipes you can use them in. Firstly, prepare a glass or jug, and pour the roselle cordial into it until it fills up to about 15 to 20 percent of the container of choice. Then, fill it up with cold water or hot water depending on your preference until the jug is full, and the hibiscus concentrate is now a drink, ready to be served. But if you intend to keep the one made cold to last longer, only fill about 10% of the container with the roselle concentrate and pour cold water in it until about half of the container is filled. Then, add the remaining space left with ice cubes. To add some elegance to the drink, squeeze a lemon or two inside the drink to let it be tastily sour and refreshing.
Next, here are a few ways for including roselle concentrate in different recipes. Firstly, you can make roselle-flavoured agar-agar. It is a jelly-like textured food that is popular in Malaysia, where the name agar-agar had come from which translates to red algae. Make 4 cups of water, 4 tablespoons of roselle syrup, and 1/4 cup of agar-agar flakes (sugar is the common option). The water and agar-agar flakes should first be stirred together in a saucepan, and they should be heated for 10 to 15 minutes over medium heat. After that, allow it to cool on low heat for 5 to 10 minutes before mixing it in with your sweetener. As the water, agar-agar flakes, and sweetener have blended well, add your roselle concentrate and mix it until it perfectly dissolves. Put it in a container or mould to let the heat off until it reaches room temperature before keeping it in the refrigerator for at least two hours. Finally, you can enjoy the roselle-flavoured agar-agar perfect for any time of the day including breakfast, lunch, dinner, and teatime as a sweet dessert.
Another way of using it is by making a roselle slushy. Firstly, use a blender to mix the roselle extract with water, ice, and some extra sweetener. Then, taste it and adjust the ingredients accordingly to how you feel is right. As simple as that, now you can serve it as it is and cool your day with a homemade slushy and keep your day going great.

Roselle Extract Overview
The roselle extract is made from the red hibiscus flower native to the African continent, believed to be from West Africa. This flower can grow up to 2.5 meters or about 8 feet tall while its red flowers measure about 8 to 10 centimeters in diameter. The plant is widely cultivated in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Central America, and South America due to the calyx’s use as an extract or concentrate to be made into drinks, vegetables, and jams.
