Summary
Hibiscus tea has a gorgeous magenta hue and sweet-tart cranberry flavor. This pavlova uses the tea two ways: finely ground to infuse and tint light-as-air meringues and also brewed, reduced, and combined with lemon curd to create a rich whipped cream topping. The result is a dessert that's both stunning and delicious.
