  • Figuring out a title for this one is gonna be a toughie, since Jamaica is spelled, well, like that.
  • I only made two quarts for this video, but right after I finished, I made another two gallons and kept it in a glass jar in the fridge. Dipping into that big ol' jug with a ladle made it feel like I was enjoying a big agua fresca at Pro's Ranch Market.
  • Be careful with the flowers once they've reconstituted. They have extreme staining power.
  • I usually take my iced tea totally unsweetened, but I do always add sugar to my jamaica. It tastes so much like a fruit punch, the cold version just begs for sweetness. I'll try it unsweetened next time I drink it hot, but I tend to enjoy it as more of a party bev than a sleepytime tea.

How close is it to hibiscus? Hibiscus infusion is awesome. I make small batches of highly-concentrated hibiscus as sauce for my morning muesli. I make the hibiscus sauce with yogurt base and add pomegranate molasses, sumac, chili, paprika, and xanthan. 1:4 hibiscus to yogurt, 1:8 pomegranate molasses to yogurt. With all of that mixed in the hibiscus is still the dominant flavor the rest give more body, I find hibiscus flavor to be a bit too narrow-band in its spectrum. I make small batches because I don't use any preservatives, so I just chew on some of the leaves which still have a ton of flavor and occasionally use them as toppings for whatever fits.

Technically this IS a hibiscus infusion so I bet they’re mostly if not totally the same. Turning it into a jam or a sauce is big brain. Good idea

cool video, though maybe you should have had a bit more about how it actually tastes and a bit less about why you needed to post this, your whole channel is things you wanted your audience to know about, this one is not an exception
