In recent months, peach Hibiscus tea with coconut jelly has brought a fresh breeze to Vietnam’s beverage scene. The drink combines gentle peach syrup sweetness, the mild tartness of hibiscus buds, and cooling coconut jelly. If you seek an easy yet distinctive alternative to traditional peach tea, this recipe should not be missed.
1. Ingredients for peach Hibiscus tea with coconut jelly
Before preparing peach hibiscus tea topped with coconut jelly, make sure you gather all the ingredients in the correct proportions below:
5g dried hibiscus buds
300ml boiling water for brewing
120ml hibiscus tea concentrate
40ml peach syrup
20ml corn syrup
1 - 2 slices of canned peaches
2 - 3 teaspoons of Vietnamese coconut jelly
1 thin slice of lemon (for garnish)
150g ice cubes
The key element that defines the flavor of peach hibiscus tea is the hibiscus tea base. Therefore, priority should be given to hibiscus flowers (roselle) with a naturally deep red color, free from dull tones or unusual odors. As for peaches, opt for peach syrup with a natural aroma that is not overly strong. The canned peaches used for decoration should appear bright yellow, be firm in texture, and not be mushy.
To ensure standard-quality coconut jelly, it is advisable to source products from reputable and long-established brands such as GC Food. GC Food’s coconut jelly is fermented from mature coconut water and undergoes strict control of sensory attributes, Brix levels, and pH values. As a result, the product maintains a pleasantly chewy texture, a natural flavor profile, and assured food safety.

2.1 Step 1: Brewing the Hibiscus tea
First, steep 5g of dried hibiscus buds in 300ml of boiling water for approximately 20 minutes to fully extract the flower’s distinctive color and flavor. Once brewing is complete, gently strain the tea to obtain the hibiscus infusion with its full flavor preserved.
2.2 Step 2: Mixing the peach Hibiscus tea
Add the hibiscus tea, peach syrup, corn syrup, and ice cubes to a shaker to prepare for mixing. Shake well to allow the ingredients to blend thoroughly while rapidly chilling the drink. Then, pour the tea into a serving glass and proceed with decoration as desired.

To enhance visual appeal, top the drink with 1 - 2 slices of canned peaches, 2 - 3 spoonfuls of Ben Tre coconut jelly, hibiscus preserve, and a thin slice of fresh lemon. This garnish not only improves presentation but also enriches the overall flavor.
