On the fence when it comes to gin? Try a sip of this gateway cocktail. Known as sorrel in parts of Africa, roselle—the type of hibiscus used in most hibiscus teas—complements the floral notes of gin, resulting in a refreshing, balanced beverage. Stir leftover hibiscus tea into lemonade for a refreshing nonalcoholic sipper.
I thought this was pretty decent. I don't make a lot of lowballs, but for a low-alcohol afternoon drink when my visitor would need to drive again, it worked very well. Re: the question below about amounts. I think the idea is you make about a cup of the hibiscus water, then put a quarter cup in each individual lowball you make. So, that's why the amounts are different. Worked for me at least.
ingredient amounts do not make sense...'how to make it' says 1/4 cup tea, gin and cocchi but the list states otherwise. did we misunderstand?
