I have infused lusciously rosy red hibiscus petals with warm and scintillating spices to create a crisp, clean drink, bursting with citrus notes. Drunk by the pharaohs of Egypt, this favorite elixir from around the world is known as Jamaica in Mexico, the Caribbean and Australia, as Roselle or sorrel, and in Egypt its called karkade. No matter which continent, it deserves to be savored one sip a time, hot, iced or my favorite, cocktails.

In my native Guyana, we had several bushes of this fruit growing among our star fruit, guava, pomegranate and mango trees. We called them Sorrel, but its scientific name is (Hibiscus sabdariffa), not to be confused with those showy hibiscus flowers you find in your local garden store.

My grandfather and I used the roots of another native Guyanese Hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis), mixed with spices for hair tonic. I used to crumble the leaves and mix them with other ingredients for a lathery hair wash.
