Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Pour the thawed frozen lemonade concentrate into a large pitcher. Measure one full can of water and add it to the pitcher, then top it with about a third of a can more.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine two cans of water and bring it to a near boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the dried culinary hibiscus flowers to the hot water and stir gently. Cover the saucepan and allow the mixture to steep for about 20 minutes.
  4. After 20 minutes, strain the hibiscus-infused water into the lemonade pitcher using a fine mesh strainer.
  5. Give the pitcher a good stir to combine the lemonade and hibiscus infusion thoroughly. Serve immediately over ice or chill in the refrigerator.
  6. Optionally, garnish each glass with a fresh lemon wedge before serving.
