Ingredients:
- water (1/2-1 gallon)
- 1 1/2 cups whole hibiscus fresh edible flowers (available at most health food stores in western countries)
- 1/2 cup gingerroot (or 18-1/4 cup cinnamon mixed with 1/4 cup cloves)
Directions:
- Add 1/2 to 1 gallon water to a saucepan.
- Drop hibiscus flowers on top of the water until the surface is mostly covered with flowers. Add ginger root or cinnamon and cloves, if desired.
- Bring to a boil.
- Once you have a running boil, turn down heat to a simmer, cover and cook at a low simmer for ten minutes.
- Add the sugar or honey according to taste, mix well, then let simmer for five more minutes.
- Remove from heat, and let cool for at least one hour.
- Add ice, and serve.
- May also be served hot, soon after the sugar is added.
