ICED HIBISCUS TEA WITH PINEAPPLE (BURKINA FASO)
Burkina Faso, also known by its short-form name Burkina, is a landlocked country in west Africa. The tea is called Bissap a La Bonne Dame in Burkina Faso, Africa, and enjoyed everyday in the hot weather. Chilled hibiscus tea is light and refreshing. The natural floral tang is a wonderful counterpart to sweet pineapple chunks. I'm traveling the world, making vegetarian or vegan recipes from each country. Some can be especially challenging, lol.

Steps:
- Pour boiling water over hibiscus flowers or teabags.
- Let steep about 30 minutes. Hibiscus looks so pretty as the purplish dried leaves turn the water deep red.
- Strain into ice to speed up cooling.
- Serve chilled with chunks of freshly cut pineapple. You can leave the pineapple out of the drink if you like, but it's so good and cold, don't leave it out!
- If you like, mix equal parts lemonade with the tea. Yum.
