The stages run Emerging, Rising, Peaking, Mainstream, Fading. A trend can skip a stage or move back.
Dried hibiscus flowers brewed into a deep red tea, served iced or topped up with lemonade or soda: tart, a little like cranberry.

The "Where to get one" list on this page has every one, with the price where the menu gives one, links to the menu or post, and directions. Menus change, so check with the cafe before you go.
What else is hibiscus called?
Adelaide cafes also sell hibiscus as "Hibiscus Iced Tea" and "Hibiscus Tea". The Froth counts every one of these names as the same trend, from cafe menus and Google reviews.
Where in Australia is hibiscus biggest?
It is on a bigger share of Gold Coast cafes: 2.1% against Adelaide's 0.7%, over the last 90 days.
How does The Froth count this?
A cafe counts for hibiscus from the first Google review we found that mentions it, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once. A change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before, only among cafes we have followed through both, so newly added cafes never look like growth. The 90 days end on the latest day with new reviews or menus (14 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Adelaide with all of a trend's names added up. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
