Steps:
- Heat 1 quart water to boiling and let stand 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the hibiscus flowers and the sugar in a heat-safe 2-quart pitcher.
- Over a gas burner, or in a hot, dry skillet, toast the chili until the skin has blackened in places. (Hold the chili with tongs; its natural oils irritate skin.) Cut the chili in half widthwise; discard the top half, which includes the seed pod and stem. Remove any stray seeds and add the chili to the sugar mixture.
- Pour the hot water into the pitcher and cover with plastic wrap. Let steep for 30 minutes, removing the chili after it has flavored the tea to the desired hotness (10 to 30 minutes). Strain the tea through a sieve into a serving pitcher, and refrigerate until cool.
- Serve in tall glasses over ice.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh hibiscus flowers. If you can't find fresh hibiscus flowers, you can use dried hibiscus flowers, but you will need to adjust the amount of sugar you use.
- You can also use other types of tea, such as black tea or green tea. Just adjust the amount of sugar you use accordingly.
- If you don't have any simple syrup, you can make your own by dissolving 1 cup of sugar in 1 cup of boiling water.
- Be sure to chill the hibiscus tea before serving. You can also add ice cubes or a scoop of ice cream to the drink.
- Garnish the drink with a lime wedge or a sprig of mint.
Conclusion:
This rum with iced hibiscus tea is a refreshing and flavorful cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a delicious and refreshing drink, give this rum with iced hibiscus tea a try!
