Zobo is the deep red hibiscus drink that shows up at every Nigerian gathering. Dried roselle petals are steeped until the liquid turns crimson, then sweetened and finished with warm spices such as ginger and cloves. The result is tart, floral and refreshing, and it is served cold.
There is no alcohol in it, so it suits everyone at the table, and it stands up to heavily spiced food better than most soft drinks. Pour it alongside suya, jollof rice or a bowl of peppersoup.
Ask us to confirm the size on this listing. Drink it at the restaurant in Remera, or order online for pickup or delivery in Kigali from Jollof Bistro.
