HIBISCUS CORDIAL
Hibiscus is used throughout the Middle East and Latin America to make a ruby-red herbal tea. You can find the flowers at a tea or herb retailer. This hibiscus cordial is the brainchild of our bar manager and long-time friend Robert Krueger. This cleverly designed cordial brings out a rich color, beautiful floral notes, and a nice citrus flavor from the dried hibiscus flowers. It's the main ingredient in Rob's Roselle cocktail (page 71). Vodka and brandy serve to fortify the cordial for longer use.
