Tangerine Hibiscus Rub, also called hibiscus rub, tangerine spice or hibiscus seasoning, is a salt-free and MSG-free seasoning blend. It combines the fruity flavor of sweet tangerine with the tart, cranberry-like flavor of hibiscus, perked up with a little bit of heat.

This is a surprisingly versatile blend; it’s not too tart, it’s not too spicy, and delivers sweet, citrusy flavor. 

Businesses that frequently purchase Tangerine Hibiscus Rub are Mexican restaurants; gastro pubs; food trucks; B&Bs and hotels; seasoning companies; independent spice shops; and honey, tea, coffees, and bitter syrup manufacturers.

Flavor Profile

How To Use

Put salt-free Tangerine Hibiscus Rub on grilled chicken or fish, like these Grilled Tangerine Hibiscus Mahi Mahi Tacos with Chile-lime Mango Slaw.  Dust over Quick and Easy Grilled Shrimp for simple, flavorful skewers, or toss over cubed chicken breast for a tropical twist on Asian-style Chicken Lettuce Wraps. Use it instead of Thai seasoning for aromatic Coconut Soup. It’s wonderful on vegetables, so use it when making Grilled Asparagus or in the dressing for a Zoodle Salad.

Make a tropical appetizer by dusting on fresh jicama. Mix with a touch of sugar and rim a glass for a sweet and spicy margarita.
