hibiscus and lemon swirl loaf cake

aqua de jamaica is a sweet and bright drink popular in latin cuisines, made with a hibiscus flower tea. My boyfriend had made it for my birthday last year, and I loved it so much, I decided to go out and buy some hibiscus.... and I ended up buying a whole pound in bulk! I was inspired by the many recipes I have seen lately for desserts using matcha powder. The key to this recipe is to grind dried hibiscus in a spice/ coffee grinder until it is a powder. This hibiscus powder creates a lovely purple color and tropical flavor that is a welcome sign of spring in not-quite-spring weather.
