Need a serious afternoon pick-me-up?
Let's make some hibiscus potion! Here's what you'll need.
Hibiscus flowers are super cool and very tasty.
You may be able to find them in your neighborhood
grocery store in the Mexican food aisle
in little plastic baggies with the spices. Crush them in a
spice blender or a regular blender until they're, well, crushed.
Now grab your favorite cauldron
and put in some water and your flowers.
Oh, and a pinch of salt.
Bring it to a boil. It's boiling.
Add your brown and your white sugar.
Cook on medium heat
for about 10 minutes.
Then turn off the heat, cover,
and allow it to steep for about an hour.
Alright, now strain out all the flowers
into something with a pour spout.
Now you can add your vanilla
and your sherry vinegar.
If you don't have vinegar, you can use lemon juice.
Stir.
Store the whole thing in a nice jar,
or anything with a lid really, and keep it in the fridge.
Congrats!
You just made hibiscus potion!
It's a little bit harsh on its own, so let's make a cocktail.
Fill your favorite glass with ice.
Cool glass, huh?
Pour on the seltzer.
Measure out about 1 and 1 half ounces of your syrup.
You can use as little or as much as you want, though.
I don't like mine too sweet.
Drizzle it
into the seltzer.
Now you can give it to a sleepy friend,
or you can drizzle it down yourself.
Yummy.
