Hibiscus Tea Margaritas
Hibiscus Tea is a current obsession of mine. I keep a pitcher of it in the refrigerator at all times and drink a couple glasses every day. Having it on hand also makes it easy to add to cocktails.
Hibiscus Tea Sangria, Hibiscus Frozen Gin Fizz (which can be made with or without the gin), and these Hibiscus Margaritas are a few of my favorites. So far, at least. 😁
Just like Freshly Squeezed Orange Margaritas, this recipe relies on Rose's lime juice to add both sweet and sour flavors to this cocktail. Most margarita recipes call for lime juice plus simple syrup. I've found that Rose's lime juice can replace both of those ingredients.
