Finally don't have to buy fruit juice anymore! Dried Hybiscus to the rescue.

I make my own no added sugar "knox" blocks gelatin every day as a late night snack and I've been trying to find a cheaper way to flavor it which also stops the need to buy bottled juice. I figure I was paying for water and a plastic container I didn't need. I finally bought a pound of dried Hibiscus (Sabdariffa) and just one small handful in boiling water made a juice so dark you can't see through it. That container used to cost me $6 for pure cranberry juice. Now it will cost me about 50 cents! Along with a tablespoon of honey and a dash of vanilla.
