Notes
How to make hibiscus concentrate
In a 5qt- saucepan boil, 1 cup dried hibiscus flowers with three cups of water for 10 to 15 minutes. Strain the mixture in a large pitcher and add 1 cup of sugar. Reserve the hydrated flowers for tacos or salsa.This will be strong and sweet. If you want to make agua fresca, mix one part of hibiscus concentrate with three parts of water.
