Spent a great vacation at Cabo San Lucas in Mexico last summer (We got to watch the filming of Helen of Troy on the Pacific Coast). We also got to try and get hooked on the Hibiscus tea served there. I hope my hibiscus plants put off enough flowers this season. Can dried hibiscus be purchased anyhwere?. Thanks for the recipe> DocMike

i love hibiscus tea, and the recipe! since my hibiscus plant doesn't produce enough flowers to keep me satisfied, i have to buy hibiscus flowers. i get them for about $3.00 per pound at sfherb.com, in a small pieces/cut size that i throw into a metal tea ball (makes the cleanup that much easier).
