HIBISCUS-AND-GINGER ICED TEA
If any drink was made for leisurely back-porch sipping, it's iced tea. Our version is brewed from zesty hibiscus tea, which is made from coppery-red hibiscus leaves and is naturally caffeine free. Ginger syrup and fresh lemon juice add layers of flavor.

joe.bakeman16@hotmail.comThis iced tea is a great way to cool down on a hot day, but it's also a bit too tart for my taste. I would recommend adding more honey or sugar to sweeten it up.

j-r@yahoo.comI'm not usually a fan of hibiscus tea, but I really enjoyed this iced tea. The ginger mellows out the tartness of the hibiscus, and the honey adds just the right amount of sweetness.

nvp@yahoo.comThis iced tea is a great way to use up leftover ginger. I had a few pieces of ginger that were starting to go bad, so I grated them and added them to the tea. It gave the tea a nice spicy flavor.
