You can get 200g of Dry Zobo leaf from organic stores or local markets,get the sweetener(1satchet) or honey and 1 small size pineapple.
Wash the zobo leaf to remove sand,place in a pot of 2 litres of water,boil for 15 minutes,sieve the water out,allow to cool down to a certain temperature,add the sweetener or honey and pineapple juice.
The Zobo is ready.
At this point,the zobo has cooled down,bottle them or put them in airtight containers and refrigerate them and serve them chilled.
Cons:

Pros:
Zobo drink offers vitamin C and antioxidants which fights and eliminates free radicals from our body.
It helps to hydrate the body and provides the body with a certain energy level.
It serves as a homemade juice especially when served chilled.
Therefore,it is a good practice to keep high level of hygiene during its preparation and prepare few quantity as much as you can consume if you do not have a refrigerator to preserve it.
Friends,remember to use only purified water in this homemade drink,trust me,the taste will make you crave for more if you have not tasted it before.
Love you all.
