Bless My Heart I Married A Yankee

I have to admit I have had dried hibiscus flowers for like over 2 years now and just never made it into tea.  Last week my husband can home and was telling me about some tea he had at a Mexican restaurant that day.  He explained to me that it was hibiscus tea.  I told him that I had dried hibiscus flowers in the cabinet and could make him some.   That very night I threw some dried flowers in some water and boiled them then allowed them to steep overnight.  The next day, I strained out the flowers and poured the tea into a pitcher.  If you know me, I hate to waste stuff so I then put the flowers back in my pot and added some more water.  Brought it to a boil and allowed it to steep all day.  About 8 hours later I added it to the other tea and put around 1/4 cup of agave syrup in the pitcher.   Hibiscus tea reminds me of cranberry juice.  It is nice and tart with a delicate flowery sweet flavor.   If you prefer to have a calorie-free drink do not add any sugar or
