Bring the water and ginger to a boil in a pot.
Add the hibiscus and steep over low heat for 6 minutes.
Remove the pot from the heat and add the mint.
Let the mixture stand for 10 minutes, then strain it.
Stir the sugar into the hot infusion until dissolved.
Chill the drink completely and serve with ice and orange slices.
💡 Tip: Do not boil the hibiscus for too long, a short steep preserves the vivid red color and refreshing tartness.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve bissap cold over plenty of ice with mint leaves and orange slices.
