Hibiscus Punch
First, we will make some hibiscus concentrate.
Buy one ounce of hibiscus. Put the whole ounce in a quart canning jar.
Optional: Add one scant teaspoonful of dried mint leaves to the jar.
Fill the jar to the top with boiling water. Put the two-part canning lid on the jar.
Allow this brew to steep for at least four hours. I often make it at night and serve the next day.
To serve, dilute the concentrate with cold water. I add about three quarts cold water and lots of ice to one quart of hibiscus concentrate.
Optional: Add sweetener of your choice before serving.
Unlike other infusions, this one stays good in the fridge for up to a week.
