Agua de jamaica is a classic cold drink in Mexico - it's gently fruity, floral flavor is so refreshing!

Ingredients
- ¼ cup dried hibiscus flowers
- 1 cup water
- 3 tablespoon sugar
- 1 ½ cups water (or less if you prefer stronger)
- ice to serve
Instructions
- Put the hibiscus flowers and 1 cup of cold water in a small pan and bring to a boil. Simmer for around 10 minutes then remove from the heat and leave to cool.
- I usually add the sugar while the concentrate is still warm to help the sugar dissolve, but you can also add it along with the additional water later.
- Once the concentrate has cooled, strain and either store for later or make up drinks. Add the rest of the water (and sugar, if not already added), pour over ice and serve.
Notes
- This recipe makes approx ¾oz (q75ml) of concentrate which when diluted will give around 5 glasses but it may be less if you make it stronger. If you prefer it sweeter, add additional sugar along with the second lot of water.
