Hibiscus tea should be completely avoided by infants under six months who should only be getting breast milk as well as kids with kidney failure, who can't efficiently excrete it.

Hibiscus is widely consumed around the world as a ruby-colored, lemony beverage. Hibiscus is safe and, unlike most blood pressure drugs, rarely causes side effects.
Recent studies show that hibiscus (Hibiscus sabdariffa) tea can lower blood pressure as effectively as some standard anti-hypertensive drugs can.
