Cocktail Time: Hibiscus Tea Cobbler
The hibiscus flower is known by many names around the world and has various symbolic meanings. It makes delicious tea, which is bright red, with a characteristically tart flavour.
Hibiscus tea can be served hot or cold. This recipe by Daniel Parker Guidry, manager of Bar Casa Vale, requires the cocktail to be muddled rather than shaken, for a more potent, refreshing drink.
