Hibiscus Tea Concentrate

• active time: 30 minutes
• total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

4 cups water

1 cup dried hibiscus flowers

1/2 cup agave syrup

1 TBS tequila

1 tsp lime juice

Directions

Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat and add the dried hibiscus and agave. Stir, then cover and steep for 20 minutes.

Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer. Discard the leaves. Tip in the tequila and lime, if using, and stir. The tequila helps to work as a preservative.
