Preparation
Heat the water to a low simmer, either in a teapot or in a saucepan on the stovetop. Steep the tea in the hot water for 3 minutes, then remove the bags or strain off the loose tea.
Set the tea aside to cool to room temperature for bout 20 minutes.
Combine equal parts honey and water in a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan. Warm in the microwave or over the stovetop just until you can completely stir the honey into the water. Set aside.
When ready to serve, fill 4 medium glasses with ice. Fill each halfway with hibiscus tea. Top each with about a tablespoon of lime juice and 1 teaspoon of the honey simple syrup, and stir to combine.
Fill the rest of each glass with sparkling water, gently stirring afterward to combine. You can adjust the taste by using less lime juice or more honey syrup.
Serve promptly.
