Instructions

  1. Add water, sugar (honey or agave) and dried flowers to a medium pot. Slowly bring to a boil while stirring occasionally, over medium heat. Once it reaches a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer on low for 15 minutes until slightly reduced and syrup like (it won't be very thick).
  2. Cool completely in pan, about 45-60 minutes. Placing pourable measuring bowl in sink, fitted with a mesh strainer, slowly pour liquid into bowl. Fit a small jar with a funnel and slowly pour the hibiscus syrup into the jar.
  3. Secure with lid, store in refrigerator 2 weeks to 3 months.

Notes

  • Ways to Use Simple Syrup
  • Here are a few of our favorite ways to enjoy this floral flavor:
  • squeeze
  • Christmas
  • A replacement for grenadine syrup in a Shirley Temple or other drinks, iced teas, punch and craft cocktails
  • Pour over ice cream, sorbet or sherbet (perhaps over Old-Fashioned Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, or a lemon gelato, or rose pistachio??)
  • Freeze it into small ice cubes for iced tea's and other drinks
  • Flavor Italian Sodas, it's the prettiest pink color!
  • Make a Skinny Cocktail | Add a touch of sweetness to a glass filled with ice and club soda or sparkling water with a squeeze of lemon juice and/or lime juice.
  • Bottle some for hostess, teacher, Christmas and food gift baskets. Don't forget the gift tags!
  • Drizzle a little into your buttercream for both flavor and pink coloring, naturally!
  • But probably my favorite is in a hibiscus cocktails, such as this amazing Hibiscus Mojito, Healthy Hibiscus Margaritas {Cocktail or Mocktail}.
  • Try creating a new cocktail by adding a splash to your Moscow Mules, Gin & Tonics, Hibiscus Margarita.
