Red Zinger Hibiscus

Central FL, FL(Zone 9b)

As far as I can tell, there is no hibiscus commonly known as red zinger, although the red zinger tea is made from hibiscus. Does anyone know what this hibiscus is called? This link includes a photo. I'd like to know how to care for this plant and whether it's all right to grow it in FL. Should it be invasive, I'd rather not grow it here.

Any info would be appreciated.

Chinese Hibiscus sabdariffa and Thai Red Roselle seem to be the mixture used for this tea as far as I can understand from their advertisement.
