Ingredients

Agua de Jamaica (Hibiscus Cooler)

  • 4 cups + 4 cups water, divided

  • 1 and 1/2 cups dried hibiscus flowers

  • 1/2 cup sugar (or sweetener of choice, such as Heaven & Earth Coconut Sugar)

  • 1 cup orange juice

  • 2 cups ice, crushed or whole

Directions

1.

In a pot, bring four cups water to a boil. Turn off the heat and add hibiscus flowers and sugar, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

2.

Cover the pot and let the concentrate steep for 30 minutes.

3.

Strain the concentrate over a large jug and discard the hibiscus. Let cool.

4.

Add orange juice and remaining four cups water to the concentrate. Stir to combine.

5.

Add ice to a pitcher or individual glasses, pour the hibiscus cooler over the ice, and serve.

Tips:

To make a smaller pitcher for serving, mix one and a half cups prepared concentrate with half a cup orange juice, two cups water, and one cup ice.

Notes:

You can store the concentrate in the fridge for three to five days.
