Question

Do I have to add pineapple?

Community Answer

You don't necessarily have to add pineapple but it will give the drink extra flavor and helps tone down the sugars in the drink.

Question

Can I sweeten with dates?

Community Answer

Yes. Add dates five minutes before you stop boiling the drink, rather than when the recipe says to add sugar.

Question

How can I preserve it to last up to 7 days?

Eddie Guerrero

Community Answer

Preserving the Zobo drink requires it to be boiled beforehand. To pasteurize the beverage, you need to keep it in sterile water heated for up to 100 degrees Celsius for a couple of minutes. The heating effect will increase the shelf life by a significant amount.

Question

Do I need to grind my garlic?

Ashwin kumar

Community Answer

Yes, it's a very important step to do for preparation of the zobo drink. Cook on medium heat and leave to boil for a few minutes. Add the ginger and the garlic, add more water and keep boiling for at least 30 minutes. This is the time it will take for the zobo leaves to become completely soft. Turn off the heat and set aside to cool down completely.

Question

Can you add pineapple peels without adding the fruit?

Mrs Gwynneth Clegg

Community Answer

No, you want the pineapple flesh. As for adding ginger, a very small amount ginger powder (say 1/4 spoonful) would override all the other flavours.
