This is a beautiful garnet-red drink with a flavor and color similar to cranberry juice, but not so bitter. It is pronounced (ha-MY-ca) and can normally be found at Mexican Markets.
I like to mix it with 100% agave tequila too!
* 2 cups jamaica (dried variety of hibiscus flower)
* 8 cups water
* sugar, agave or honey to taste
Place jamaica flowers in large pot with water, and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, and steep at room temperature at least 1 hour or overnight. Strain and discard flowers.
Add sugar, stirring to dissolve. Add more sugar if drink is too tart, or more water if drink is too strong. Cover, and refrigerate for up to two days. Serve cold.
