I think it was probably Agua de Jamaica (Hibiscus Flower Water). When I
had it it was a dark maroon or dark burgundy color. But it could be red
I suppose depending on the recipe used. There are recipes on the
internet that can be found with a search engine. You will probably need
to go to a Hispanic market and look for hibiscus or Jamaica flowers to
make it.
Thanks! You are probably right, the flower water wan't red , it was more dark burgundy color. Apparently you just put all the ingredients (flowers + water + sugar ) in a saucepan and "Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat. Let mixture steep for 30 minutes. Strain and refrigerate."
