Worth, in Egypt this sort of tea is called "Karkadeh" - I really love it! Everytime I spend my holidays there, I buy quite a lot to take it home and it's always gone much too early! Be careful when preparing the tea: Use hot water, not boiling water, and don't let the blossoms be in the water for more than 10 minutes, otherwise the tea will have a bitter taste.
Me, too, I'm thinking of growing Hibiscus sabdariffa to have this wonderful tea whenever I want. clara
