Put 4 c water on the stove and bring to a boil.

Once boiling, turn off heat, and steep 1/2 c dried hibiscus for about 5 minutes.

Strain hibiscus leaves from the pot, throw away, and set tea aside to cool.

Chop up watermelon, remove rind, and add flesh to juicer (seeds and all) until you have 4 c of juice. Approximately1/2 a medium-sized watermelon will yield 4 c.

Store watermelon juice in a large pitcher while the hibiscus tea is cooling. Once the tea has cooled, add it to the pitcher. Mix well.

Stir in 1/2 c fresh squeezed lime juice.

Serve chilled with ice cubes and a slice of lime. Add optional sweeteners such as honey, agave, or Stevia to individual glasses to taste.
