HIBISCUS SABDARIFFA

FAMILY :: MALVACEAE
JAMAICA, ROSELLE, l’Oseille de Guinée, Guinea Sorrel, and Karkadé: This is an annual hibiscus that is very easy to grow here in Puerto Vallarta. The flowers are extremely beautiful and tasty. The extract is a staple on the streets here, being called “Jamaica.” The locals have many medicinal virtues attached to this drink, but mainly it’s very refreshing, especially in the summer months.
