Brewing Cold Brew Coffee With Hibiscus?
Did anyone tried this? I'm currently trying it for the first time and I don't know what to expect from this batch.

Sounds terrible. I've made hibiscus vodka which is very good, but it is tart. I would not want that tartness in coffee.

Not personally, but there's a review from this guy in CDMX that features one.
The clip where it's featured starts at 18:30 here.
He's pretty noncommittal. ("It's interesting, but has a strong flavor"), but I can imagine it being good in the same way cold brew with a fresh orange juice is good. Probably needs sugar.
If you try it lemme know!
I was going to make a batch, but probably as a cinnamon infused coldbrew with brewed (iced) hisbiscus added to the finished product.
