Ingredients

4 servings

½ cup dried hibiscus flowers
½ cup fresh lemon juice (from about 4 lemons)
1 cup cold water

For the hibiscus concentrate

3 cups water
3 tbsp honey
Chef's tip
Use the same amount. Maple syrup is a little thinner and less sticky than honey.

For serving

2 cups ice cubes
4 lemon slices (optional)
4 fresh mint sprigs (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the dried hibiscus flowers and 3 cups of water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, until the liquid is a deep ruby red.
2
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the honey until fully dissolved. Let the concentrate steep and cool for 20 minutes.
