Dried Hibiscus Flowers

Dried Hibiscus is most commonly used to make tea. In Jamaica and many other islands in the Caribbean, the drink is known as sorrel and is considered a quite popular drink at Christmas time. Sorrel is served cold and mixed with other herbs, roots, and spices and sweetened with cane sugar. It can also be served mixed with Jamaican rum or wine.

In Mexico, Hibiscus Flower Tea is well know for its color, tanginess and mild flavor. Adding sugar, gives the tea a more intense herbal and berry (cranberry, raspberry, etc) infused tea.

Hibiscus Flower Tea is consumed all over the world, hot or cold. It is known as Bissap in West Africa, Karkady in the Middle East, flor de Jamaica in Mexico, Gongura in India and Brazil. Some also refer to it as Roselle, a common name for the hibiscus flower.
