Tropical Hibiscus Bourbon Cocktail- #FlowerCocktailHour
Tropical Hibiscus Bourbon Cocktail with GUEST Jennifer Pascua
My Flower Friend Jenn returns to help me create a Tropical Cocktail- and I’m sporting my Vintage Reyn Spooner Drinking Shirt… it’s a Classic- and I couldn’t resist wearing it for creating the Tropical Hibiscus Bourbon Cocktail. The Recipe for this cocktail is a BATCH recipe- so you can create them ahead of time- and have them ready to pour for all your guests!
Tropical Hibiscus Bourbon Cocktail Recipe
Batched Hibiscus Bourbon Cocktail – Makes 4 Cocktails
¾ cup bourbon whiskey
¼ cup lemon juice
¼ cup + 2 T orgeat almond syrup
⅓ cup hibiscus elixir
Instructions:
In a medium size container – a bowl or mason jar – combine hot water, sugar and hibiscus powder. Whisk until sugar is completely dissolved.
In a cocktail shaker, combine all ingredients. Add ice and shake vigorously for a full 10 seconds.
Strain into a rocks glass with crushed ice.
Notes:
When making the batch cocktail, use a large mason jar with a lid to shake or stir very well with a whisk in the serving container. Because the almond syrup is thick and the ice is cold, you want to make sure it gets distributed evenly.
