Butterfly pea, Rosella flower, and Stevia leaf known as herbs contains phenolic and flavonoid. This constituent are responsible as antioxidant activity. Many people consume the herbs by brewing with hot water as infused water. The purpose of this research is to determine antioxidant activity of infused Butterfly pea, Rosella flower, and Stevia leaf by FRAP method. This is non experiment method descriptive with dry herbs of Butterfly pea, Rosella flower, and Stevia leaf infused extract as sample. The research was conducted in September 2022-February 2023 at STIKes Mitra Keluarga Laboratory. The antioxidant activity is expressed as % FRAP activity. Based on the experiment, it knows that % FRAP activity of Butterfly pea, Rosella flower, and Stevia leaf consecutive 55,29% ± 0,0, 69,17% ± 0,12 , 61,55% ± 0,04.]]>
