Hibiscus Simple Syrup, 4 Easy Hibiscus Syrup Recipes for Delicious Cocktails
Use these four easy Hibiscus Simple syrup recipes to make amazing cocktails with Hibiscus Syrup! I prefer my Hibiscus syrup as a rich simple syrup, which simply means that it contains two parts sugar to one part water. The flavors of Hibiscus are more prominent and any bitterness is subdued with the additional sweetness, lending to balanced, bright and perfectly floral cocktails.
