Dried Hibiscus Blooms 8 oz Loose Leaf - Flor de Jamaica - Agua de Jamaica

Description

Hibiscus sabdariffa
L.
Other: Roselle, Ambashthaki
Hibiscus flowers are the main ingredient in many wonderfully refreshing teas made around the world, especially in Mexico, Latin America, and North Africa. A tea known as Agua de Jamaica, or simply Jamaica in Mexico, is usually served chilled with copious amounts of sugar to sweeten the natural tartness of the hibiscus.
These flowers are rich in nutrients including flavonoids, minerals, and vitamin C. Consuming hibiscus tea has been shown to aid in lowering high blood pressure and reducing cholesterol. Lowering high blood and cholesterol reduces the risk of heart attack, stroke and kidney failure. Drinking hibiscus tea has also been found to be beneficial for people with kidney problems as it acts as a natural diuretic.
To Prepare: Rinse quickly with cold water prior to use.
Bring 2 quarts of water and 1 cup of sugar to a boil. Add spices if you like; popular options are cinnamon, ginger, lime zest, and dried vanilla pods. Add 1 cup of dried hibiscus flowers. Take off heat, cover, and steep for 20 minutes, then strain. Chill and serve. Preferably over ice with a squeeze of lime.
