Stopped at Food 4 Less, which has amazing produce. This is the place I found the garbanzo beans in the shell. They have lots of Latin foods here, and one of them was this big pile of what was only labeled as “Jamaica.”
I was curious after my last visit, and looked it up on the internet. Had a feeling it was a flower. Yes! Jamaica flower is hibiscus.
So I bought some and made iced tea!
It’s pretty and tasty. Tangy. I’ve had it in Celestial Seasonings blends I’m sure. Fun to steep the actual flowers, though.
Okay, you can tell me. Maybe I’ve been living outside the city too long if I have begun to categorize steeping flowers as “fun.”
