Chef notes

Bright colors and tartness make this drink so refreshing and enjoyable year-round. The hibiscus adds some sweeter, floral notes to the drink, which balances the citrus nicely.

Technique tip: Shake until very cold for 10 seconds.

Swap option: Hibiscus tea works just as well as hibiscus liqueur.

  • hibiscus sugar, to rim the glass
  • ounces blanco tequila
  • 1 ounce hibiscus liqueur
