    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a saucepan, bring the water to a boil, then add the dried hibiscus flowers. Let them steep for 10 minutes to extract the color and flavor.

    2

    Strain the hibiscus infusion, then stir in the sugar, honey, and lemon juice until completely dissolved.

    3

    Allow the mixture to cool completely to room temperature.

    4

    Pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place it in the freezer.

    5

    Every 30 minutes, scrape the sorbet with a fork to create an icy texture. Repeat this process 3-4 times until fully frozen.

    6

    Before serving, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping. Garnish with fresh mint leaves.
