Zubereitung von Strawberry Jamaica Agua Fresca
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup dried hibiscus flowers (jamaica) with 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to low, simmer for 6 minutes, then remove from heat. Cover and let steep for 2 hours to allow the hibiscus to fully infuse.
- While the hibiscus steeps, hull and slice 1 pound (approximately 4 cups) of fresh strawberries into a bowl. Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar, gently toss to coat, and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes to allow the strawberries to release their juices.
- Puree the macerated strawberries and their juices using an immersion blender or regular blender. Strain the puree through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher or sun tea jar to remove seeds. Pour in the hibiscus tea and stir well to combine.
- Taste the agua fresca and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar (to taste), or add more water to dilute if needed.
- Serve immediately over ice. Garnish with fresh strawberries or a sprig of mint (optional).
- Refrigerate for later or keep it well-iced for outdoor parties.
