Make a welcoming, Caribbean-inspired margarita with fragrant hibiscus blossoms. The slightly tart blossoms steep in a sugar-and-water mixture, resulting in a fresh and tangy drink. Serve over ice, and garnish with lime. Ingredients:
1 cup dried hibiscus blossoms (about 2 ounces) |
3 cups water |
3/4 cup sugar |
1 1/4 cups tequila |
1/2 cup fresh lime juice |
1/3 cup triple sec or other orange-flavored liqueur |
8 lime slices |
Directions:
1. Place blossoms in a strainer; rinse under cold water. Combine blossoms, water, and sugar in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Strain; discard blossoms. Cover and chill hibiscus mixture. 2. Combine hibiscus mixture, tequila, juice, and Triple Sec. Serve over ice. Garnish with lime slices. |
