Botanical Name:
Hibiscus sabdariffa
Hibiscus flowers are large colorful trumpets, often red or white, but varieties exist in an even wider array. The dried leaves of flowers are often used as a tea. Hibiscus has a tangy flavor that some say resembles pomegranate or cranberry.
Hibiscus have been among the more popular flowers used in gin, lending a berry/jammy flavor that is less delicate, and much more robust than other floral ingredients.
