Herbal tea is a drink made from different types of herbs, such as the leaves, seeds, or roots of plants. Herbal tea can have various health benefits, depending on the type of plant used. The objectives to be achieved in this study were to make herbal tea from arabian bidara leaves by knowing the effect of different drying times on testing water content, yield and ash content, and comparing the quality of herbal tea based on SNI 3836 2013 at various drying times (5, 6, 7, and 8 hours). The material used in this research is dried arabian bidara leaves. The making of arabian bidara leaf herbal tea (Ziziphus mauritiana) is carried out in several stages, namely, bidara leaves are sorted, then washed with running water then dried in the sun, after drying weigh and cut small bidara leaves, and stored in dry plastic containers. Bidara leaf herbal tea was tested for yield, moisture content, ash content, organoleptic, pH, and total plate count (ALT). The results obtained from the moisture content test ranged from 1,2% to 5,6%, the ash content test results ranged from 22,16% to 33,1%, and the yield results ranged from 34% to 39,3%. Organoleptic test results showed that 6 hours of drying gave the best quality tea in terms of color (brownish yellow), taste (slightly bitter), and aroma typical of bidara leaf tea. The results of the ALT test met the SNI 3836 2013 standard, which was 3,9 × 102 at 6 hours drying.
