Karkanji
Ingredients
- 60 g hibiscus flowers, dried
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 50 g ginger, fresh sliced
- 10 cloves, whole
- 2500 ml water
- sugar to taste
Instructions
- Put all ingredients except for sugar in a large saucepan.
- Bring to a boil, then turn down the heat and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes.
- Taste. If you would like to sweeten it, add sugar to your liking and let simmer for a further 5 minutes. If not, proceed to next step.
- Remove from heat. Leave to cool for at least 1 hour, strain, and serve with ice. Note: if you are in a rush you could brew the karkanji with only 2 litres of water and stir in 2 cups of ice to cool it down before straining and serving with ice.
