Hibiscus Margarita

ByMeggen Wilson Posted on Updated on

This bright floral cocktail is perfect for the winter blues when you are dreaming of a Mexican white sandy beaches. I make a hibiscus syrup with dried hibiscus flowers, sugar and water. Add a splash to tequila, lime juice and Cointreau for a margarita bursting with sunshine. You can find dried hibiscus at most Trader Joe’s or here online at Amazon.

A simple syrup of dried hibiscus mixed with , limes, tequila and a salty rim make for a refreshing Cocktail hour treat.

It is can be hot as blazes here in Florida, so a margarita really fits the bill on a Friday afternoon. This margarita is best served icy cold with a lime zested rim . It is tart and floral at the same time. Many online recipes call for silver tequila, but use what you like best. A hint of Cointreau brings out the citrus notes of this special drink. Steeping the flowers longer will produce a deeper color.

Cheers!
