Re: Hibiscus

Bourbon, cinnamon sticks, cloves, lemon juice and sugar/honey for me. Cures whatever you have!

I love Red Zinger. And it makes a good base for a most excellent hot toddy

My very all time favorite tea is Tazo tea.. herbal tea named
"Passion".  The
main ingredient is hibiscus flowers.

flowers."
I think I will go fix a cup right now....

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!
