Home Made Apple Ice Cream, Meringue and an Hibiscus Sauce

The bitterness of the hibiscus contrasted the sweetness of the ice cream and meringue and worked very well.  Take some hibiscus flowers and soak in water to get vibrant red colour out then add some sugar and reduce until it is a thick syrup.
