Looks like hibiscus is the thing for the summer. Here is another new product made, this time, from Thai Hibiscus.
Sabai (available for £4.99 for 4 275ml bottles) is a wine spritzer infused with the flower. This gives it its ruby red colour. According to the website this drink is so popular in Thailand that 90 million bottles are sold every year. The grapes used ot make the wine base are from floating vineyards in the Chao Phyra delta while the flowers are grown in the northern provinces.
Sabai will be available from Tesco and Sainsbury's shortly but you can buy online from the website for £28.80 for 24 bottles.
