Hibiscus Flower
Cranberry-like and slightly sweet in flavor. Edible hibiscus petals are typically used to make hibiscus tea, or other drinks and oils. Hibiscus flowers can also be crumbled and sprinkled on both savory and sweet dishes, like salads and soups, or ice cream and sorbets. Because hibiscus leaves are often intercropped with peanuts, they may produce a response in those with severe peanut allergies. Read more about that potential allergen here.
