Hibiscus flower has a vivid cranberry-like tartness and subtle earthiness that makes it a standout in both sweet and savory applications. Most commonly infused into teas and flavored oils, it also works beautifully crumbled over salads, stirred into soups, and folded into ice cream and sorbets. Its brilliant magenta color is a bonus in any dish that benefits from visual drama alongside complex flavor. Hibiscus is often intercropped with peanuts and may produce a response in those with severe peanut allergies.
