Jamaica, the Beverage: What Is It?
Within the last few decades, jamaica has become a popular beverage in Mexico. Actually, jamaica is a hibiscus and grows as a small bush with red blooms. Jamaica makes a delightful herbal tea and cold beverage that is the most popular form in which it is consumed. It has for many years been used as a pleasant and comforting tisane to provide pleasing color and flavor in sachets of commercial rose-hip teas, and to add an acidic flavor to some medicines. In Mexico and in the U.S.A., with a large Mexican-American presence, wherever Mexican food is served, Jamaica is a popular beverage.
