How to Make Jamaican Hibiscus Iced Tea
- Combine 1 cup of dried hibiscus flowers and 4 cups of boiling water in a heat-safe pitcher or container.
- Steep the hibiscus flowers for 15-20 minutes, allowing the vibrant color and flavor to infuse the water.
- Remove the hibiscus flowers using a fine-mesh strainer. Alternatively, you can gently press the flowers to extract maximum flavor before discarding.
- Allow the tea to cool completely. You can speed up this process by placing the pitcher in an ice bath.
- Once cooled, add 1 cup of sugar (or to taste) and stir until completely dissolved.
- Add 4 cups of cold water, ensuring the tea is well-diluted to your desired sweetness and strength.
- Add ice and fresh lime wedges or mint leaves (optional) for an extra refreshing touch.
- Serve chilled and enjoy this taste of Jamaican sunshine!
