A Refreshing Cocktail for Fall

Hibiscus sabdariffa or Roselle flowers bloom in the fall and leave behind beautiful red calaxyes to be dried for what many know as Jamaica, or dried Hibiscus. A Hibiscus Dark and Stormy is a beautiful and refreshing way to enjoy the sweet and sour flavor of hibiscus. Here we share our favorite recipe.

Enjoy this quick and easy cocktail anytime of year. It's so beautiful and refreshing! Our twist on this cocktail is to use calamansi juice in place of fresh lime juice. Lime juice works fine, but calamansi, or calamondin, gives the drink an extra floral touch. Please let us know if you make it.
