I was introduced ti this tea by a good friend of mine from the islands and have been in love with it every since. I purchased some hibiscus flowers to try my hand at making this delicious beverage. Can honey be used in place of the sugar?

I am from the Caribbean and this is a Traditional drink made at Christmas, except its made and left to ferment and rum is also added . Its served with the Local Black Cake of Christmas Cake . For the adults try adding some rum to it and let it age for at least 2-3 months in a dark place. Strain and add at least 1-2 cups sugar or to taste, as the sugar helps in the fermenting , its served over ice .

I absolutely adore your web site. This article in particular is near & dear to my heart. The item you call “Hibiscus” is actually named Sorrel here in my Caribbean island of Trinidad. There is the red & even a white variety. It’s used to make jam & our National Christmas Sorrel drink for the holidays. Would love to see you come up with a cake and frosting recipe using it. Great job on all of your creations, they really are inspirational.

I feel like I'm a little late on the pickup, but just in case someone else stumbles upon this awesome recipe...

One: though tantalizingly delicious, be careful drinking too much...let's just say that it naturally has properties to help you have to run to the bathroom. Haha

Two: the addition of lime cinnamon and clove gives this unique drink an amazing twist. I put lime juice in to taste after it's brewed, but steep 2-3 cloves and about tbsp of cinnamon or to taste. Also this tea is great hot or cold. C'est Parfait!

Well yes he does! I’ll amend the by-line to add him in. :-)
