Hibiscus

David, others if interested. We had a discussion some time ago about hibiscus tea. I just got an e-mail from a nice woman at Tufts University who recently published a study of the anti-oxidant properties of Red Zinger tea [high]. The basis of Red Zinger, she said, is H. sabdariffa--common name roselle. She said it's used in many of Celestial Seasonings herbal teas. So drink up!
