well....

i boiled some up and put a few lime slices and some sugar in it. (i
read some where that this is really nice to put in tea).

can i just add this boiled mix that i just made to dry henna? or
should i mix some henna with regular "acid" and then add a little
hibiscus to it?

ps--- will this stain nails? it looks like a pretty color! :)
