Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons hibiscus syrup or concentrated hibiscus tea
- 2 tablespoons lime juice freshly squeezed
- 2 tablespoons 100% agave tequila gold or silver
- 1 tablespoon orange liqueur I used Grand Marnier
- Garnish with a salt or sugar rimmed glass and a wedge of lime.
Instructions
- If desired, first rim glass with salt or sugar. Run a lime wedge around the rim of the glass, turning glass upside down into a plate of margarita salt or other coarse salt.
- Fill glass with crushed ice, then add hibiscus syrup, lime juice, tequila and grand marnier, stir to combine. If desired, garnish with a wedge of lime, hibiscus flower (rehydrated or from a syrup) and or other fresh seasonal berries.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Make a batch using the same ratios and pour a scant half cup over ice.
- As a great non-alcoholic thirst quencher, stir one or two tablespoons of hibiscus syrup into a glass with ice and cold sparkling water.
- For an Agua de Jamaica dilute the hibiscus syrup with even more water and fill with ice.
