Hibiscus


11.22.09 Hibiscus (test size)

1 tsp Hibscus and 6.25 oz Svedka vodka. 7:45pm. This one could be FAST, if its anything like the mint. Because the mint took only ~30 min, we tried this one after a half hour. It had a lovely bright pink color, but no hibicus flavor at all. We'll give it another try later, and if necessary add more hibiscus. 11:30pm tasted again. Barely any flavor, if any, a lot of burn. E thinks that the burn may have gotten worse. Tasted a flower and it had no flavor left, so we filtered out what was in there and put in 2 tsp more. Are planning on repeating this procedure as necessary.

11.27.09
Added 1 tbs because the flavor did not cover the vodka burn.

11.28.09
Removed the 1 Tbsp hibiscus because the hibiscus flavor was quite strong. Still some vodka burn, but much more bearable.
