About the alternatives to sugar, there are these cola, pineapple or pretty much fruit flavours that come in sachets and in powdered form. They are called Jossy. These are used locally in place of sugar but since I personally don't like refined sugar and these flavours tend to be too sweet, I get cane sugar(paneer) which is a more natural form of sugar. It's isn't processed and a little can be added during the boil to give that natural sweetness. Secondly, when you do this again, use the peels of very ripe pineapples. They are more yellow in color. They tend to be sweeter and less tangy. Your prep wasn't bad at all and I enjoyed watching. 🤎🤎🤎
It's not Ghanaian or Ghanaian language! It is Hausa drink and word. The Hausas in Ghana call it Sobolo, hence why it's called Sobo in Ghana, which is the hausa word for the Hibiscus plant.
Zobo is a traditional Northern Nigerian Hausa drink and it's full name is Zoborobo/Zoboloto/Sloboroto etc... depending on your hausa accent the name varies slightly... And has been carried across the span of west and central Africa as a result of the nomadic settlement of the hausa people across African countries, so the name can vary subject to the accent and country, but the original authentic name is Zobo/Slobo.
So why I think you had to soak first with water is just to rinse off dust and sand. It doesn't need to be hot water. Just wash off with clean tap water and sieve out with your hands, discarding the water with settled sand in it. You can also sweeten with dates.
Honey won't give the mixture that delectable sweetness and definately add some honey flavouring to the drink. I think sugar, if anything, is the best sweetner I can think of. Every alternative adds some flavouring making it better or worse. My say on this is using the sugar is best and an unhealthy treat once in a while wouldn't be of long term detrimental effects.
Well draining the zobo is to wash/ do away with the dirt, you could actually pick them out next time before u proceed to wash, I love that u put a lot which will definitely make it smell and taste nice. You can also add the sugar and let it cook all together if u want.
You can use brown sugar to sweeten it. Gives it almost an earthy taste. But you should try just zobo and cucumber. It'll give you Chapman vibes. And we're waiting for your night time routine :)
Quite a natural/professional video...well done 👏🏾. By the way you look so much like your papa. For the sweetener, you can use agave syrup which is from a plant and mainly used in drinks with strong flavours which you've just made. Hope this helps
I’ve decided I’m def incorporating some of the Nigerian ingredients in my sorrel this year! Imagine soaking pine and orange slices, in addition to the ginger and rum! 😍
you did well but washing it takes off that blood red collar, use more pineapples for taste so you don't need to add honey, and there's a food cooler I usually add for that deep red colour incase you decide to wash it
Already listened to the how far podcast where u called zobo hibiscus cocktail and was very happy cause I learnt the English name don't mind them joor call it anything u like so far as it's correct they should just say they don't know the name instead of dragging u . Please beautiful temi teach us or speak the way u know so we can learn more . 🥰🥰
First time I made zobo I was shocked how much honey I had to use. I was also trying to be healthy lol. Next time I used brown sugar. It gave nicer sweetness
You did very well, no need for panick😄. Zobo is a quick fix drink, who does overnight? 🙄Unecessary I think coz the flavours wont diffuse more than it has in that boiling process. So you can jam all your flavours at once in that pot, no need to blend if you dont have time, it will still simmer. Sieve after few mins boil and you're good! Some consider the first wash a waste but it's ok because the leaves are sometimes sandy, so the type of wash you do quickly is to pull out the leaves out of the water into another container si the sand remains at the base. Cheers to more zobo making.
We call this "sorrel beer" in the my Caribbean island. Rice is added so it can be fermented. My favorite Christmas drink. Im definitely gonna try this method.
@@mamaguile7587 I am ashamed .....you are Vincenrian and do not know that rice is used in sorrel to ferment or. Girl delete that comment and stop embarrassing us.
Zobo is naturally very sour, it’s take a lot to sweeten it. Dates or date syrup is also another option. Some people use flavoring aswell usually vanilla or strawberry. I don’t like sugar personally.
@@TemiOtedolaYT alright! But i don’t know if you’ll find it in stores abroad cos I think it’s a Nigerian product , but that’s definitely the best sweetener that I know of, And thanks for responding, you made my day🥰
Next one Chapman. Fun fact the last time I made and drank chapman I nearly ended up in A & E as I had some Fanta left over and drank that through out the day and later on Chapman and ended up with trapped wind😳. I was awful. My stomach swelled up so much I joke you not, I looked 9 months pregnant🤣, laughing now but it was painful and scary👀.
Definitely didn't see this one coming 😂 who knows, we may see Temi make kunu (Tiger nut) drink very soon👌🏾😂
Nah making tenu is modern day slavery 😭 it’s so good though
Temi’s videos feel like a FaceTime call and thats why I love them so much.

I love how you make your videos, makes it feel like we're watching you live, I love itttt❤
You seem like such a super chill person . Love your vlogs cos of the chill vibes
You can use stevia as a sweetner , I usually boil my zobo mix with cinnamon sticks

You really really give me joy Temi ❤
we're both in love with Zobo and this video makes me happy.💕
Taking this step by step really made it clear, making zobo this Christmas 🥺. Thank you Temi
The first step is actually done to remove any dirt in the Zobo leaves
‘Hello beautiful people’ gets me everytime❤️
You can use brown sugar to sweeten it. Gives it almost an earthy taste. But you should try just zobo and cucumber. It'll give you Chapman vibes.

It the smile and joy when you got the desired taste for me😂❤
We call this Sorrel in Jamaica 🇯🇲
I’ve decided I’m def incorporating some of the Nigerian ingredients in my sorrel this year! Imagine soaking pine and orange slices, in addition to the ginger and rum! 😍
I'm drinking zobo while watching..... I drink everyday before i sleep
One thing about you, you will serve quality content chile. 💕
Ivorians call it bissap 🌺☺️ and it’s very sour, it needs a good amount of sweetener if one can’t do sour lol
you did well but washing it takes off that blood red collar, use more pineapples for taste so you don't need to add honey, and there's a food cooler I usually add for that deep red colour incase you decide to wash it
I love how you love color black 🖤 annnndd this video is amazing😍

Na zobo dem dey make but me na the skin I dey look😒 Could you please make a skincare routine video coz your skin is 💯💯
To make it sweet add plenty ripe pineapple, then eve cola flavoured drink(I don't know if that's healthy for you) but check it out
the ingredients already show it's going to come out great🔥
Now we see why you watched the video of how to cut a pineapple ☺️😍its beautifully cut.
My mom and sister also use pineapple 🍍 and orange for flavor too as well as ginger
Yes cheers to you for a good job done

You speak so good

Which island? All Caribbean islands make it different. No rice or fermentation.
@@lotus9259 nope! Not Jamaican. 😊Vincentian.

#TemiOtedola do you know what I love about you? You are unapologetically 100% #TemiOtedola #PleaseDoNotAskMeAnyQuestionsOnWhyICutMyLemonsThisWay 🤣🤣🤣
One of my favorite things to make. Especially when you freeze it and make it a slushee 😩
Zobo is naturally very sour, it’s take a lot to sweeten it. Dates or date syrup is also another option. Some people use flavoring aswell usually vanilla or strawberry. I don’t like sugar personally.
It depends on which specie of habiscus you use, some aren't sour.
I was rooting for you 🤣🤣🤣 ok turned out good...yea
We use something called jolly juice to sweeten, I hope that was helpful 🌚
@@TemiOtedolaYT alright! But i don’t know if you’ll find it in stores abroad cos I think it’s a Nigerian product , but that’s definitely the best sweetener that I know of,
And thanks for responding, you made my day🥰
Oooo, looks good. New recipe to try ✍🏾
Coconut palm sugar is a healthy alternative to sweeten
Pick the dirt from the zobo leave cos it always dirty. You can add vanilla extract for more flavor
Its my first time hearing it though
So I'm glad to hear it and see how it prepares from you
I like the way you speak
Looks really good! I will try it too. We miss seeing you and Mr Eazi😍
Mama🥺🥺❤️🦋
My love 😍😍
Temi you away looking great, cute and adorable. Easy going with your meals and all...
I love you Temi and this video was very nice😘 we love a consistent queen😍
Love to seee how you do it effortlessly 😘😚
😆😆😆.
Thank you for the lecture ❤️😊✋
Love and Light. Thankyou. Enjoyed it 🙂
For sweetener, I blend the very ripe pineapple and pear/apple.
I like the dress alot ( colour and style) , also im a clove addict during work hours. I want the zobo Herrin (bazin) i l enjoyed the video.
You did great temi
My gorgeous namie 🥺🥰
Can’t wait to try making this 😍
Beautiful as always 😍
Whenever you’re in Lagos, try the Zobo x Pedro drink from SLoW, so refreshing. Would be perfect with a splash of simple/ lychee syrup.
The best drink for the weekend. Healthy and delicious. Who said you can't eat your cake and have it? 😋
yass queen you look good ❤️
Temi, since you love cloves, you can try out this 'beyond comment tea', it's really nice!
Temi!!! I love your videos!!!
MY WIFEEEE❤❤❤❤
Awwwwwwwwwn
Wow it's called sobolo in Ghana
Hey Temi , I wanted to ask if your extensions are clip on , or you sewed them in ?
Love it, I'm sha always on your Twitter saying new week new energy that how I start my week, I'll like to tastes your zobo
The sweetener should be sugar rather just a little
love!
sugar and honey alone won't work, add these powdered juices that are made for large mixes instead.
Waaaaw good
