Mexicans are great consumers of hibiscus flowers. They make a refreshing water, called “agua de Jamaica”, with an infusion of dried flowers in boiling water and sugar, and filtered before putting it in the refrigerator. This floral or fruity water is ideal for making cocktails and desserts. A delicious hibiscus syrup (Wild Hibiscus Flower) is also commercialized.
