INGREDIENTS
Main Ingredients
- 💧 6 cups water
- 2 cups dried hibiscus petals
Spices
- 1 pinch ground cloves
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
- 1 pinch ground allspice
Sugars
- ½ cup chopped piloncillo
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
STEPS
Place 6 cups of water in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Stir in the hibiscus petals, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and allspice. Reduce heat to medium-low, and gently simmer until the water has turned a deep red, 30–45 minutes.
Stir the chopped piloncillo into the hibiscus water until dissolved, then set aside to cool for 15 minutes.
After cooling, strain the warm liquid into a 1-gallon pitcher through a wire mesh strainer. Squeeze as much liquid from the petals as you can, then discard the petals.
Stir in the white sugar until dissolved, then pour in enough cold water to fill the pitcher. Serve immediately or let stand overnight for the best taste.
