Jamaica (Cold brew hibiscus iced tea)

Ordered this for lunch this at a Mexican restaurant in Utah.  It was tasty so I decided to make it. It was quite easy to make.  A bit tart, if you like tart.

Can also used to make a hibiscus shandy, which was a drink I had  for dinner the same day at a different restaurant in Utah. 

Makes several

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup dried hibiscus tea leaves
  • 1 cinnamon stick 
  • 4 cups cold water
  • 2 TBSP to 1/4 cup simple syrup (I used 3 TBSP)

Instructions:

  • Put hibiscus leaves, and cinnamon stick in a tea container to diffuse in 4 cups water. 
  • Refrigerate for 8-12 hours. 
  • Discard solids.
  • Add simple syrup
  • Serve. 
Made from: The Kitchn 
Inspired by this restaurant: Maracas Mexican Grill

Ok so I know this has nothing to do with the drink, but this is the fabulous Mexican food!
