One of our favorite recipes involves mixing it with Hibiscus tea/Agua de Jamaica. Makes a refreshing drink for summer weather. #teasky

Hope hibiscus isn't one of your allergies.
Heat Water: Start with 0.8 L of cold water in a kettle and heat it to 80°C Steep Hibiscus: Combine the hot water with 8g of dry hibiscus flowers in a glass pitcher of about 0.8L Filtered Pour: Using a strainer, pour the liquid into a bottle or jar to separate the hot strained hibiscus tea from the used flowers. Compost: Dispose of the used hibiscus flowers in the compost. Mix and Stir: Add Yuja/Yuzu Marmalade (Honey Citron Tea) to the hot strained hibiscus tea and stir thoroughly. Chill (Optional): The resulting hot Yuzu Jamaica can be served immediately or chilled to create a cold beverage.
