Agua De Jamica -

Makes about 1 quart more or less

relatively easy

Ingredients

  • 1 cup dried hibscus flowers, rinse before using
  • 6 tablespoons granulated sugar, or to your liking
  1. In a large saucepan or pot, bring 4 cups of water to boil
  2. Add sugar and stir to disolve. Stir in flowers and cook for 5 minutes or until the flowers have cooked down and the water is a beautiful pink color.
  3. Turn off heat, and steep for 15-20 minutes until the water is a deep magenta.
  4. Strain concentrate and add to a pitcher or large glass container. Stores nicely in the fridge for a week. I like to add to a big pitcher with a little bit of cold water to my liking. Be careful not to add too much water, it will weaken the tea.
  5. And then enjoy!!
