Agua de jamaica shows up at taquerias, family gatherings, and roadside stands across Mexico and Central America for a reason — it's genuinely refreshing in a way that soda tries to imitate and never quite manages. Dried hibiscus flowers steep in hot water until the liquid turns a deep ruby red, then get sweetened lightly and finished with fresh lime juice. It's a drink that takes fifteen minutes of mostly hands-off time and rewards you with a pitcher that lasts several days in the fridge.
