Ingredients
One 1/2-inch piece ginger, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup dried hibiscus flowers
12 ounces dark rum
Orange wedges or slices, for garnish
Directions
- Bring 3 cups water and the ginger to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the sugar, stir until dissolved and remove from the heat. Add the hibiscus flowers, and let the tea steep for 10 minutes. Strain the tea through a fine-mesh strainer, and refrigerate it until completely cooled, about 15 minutes.
- Fill 6 wineglasses with ice. Add 4 ounces of the hibiscus tea and 2 ounces of the rum to each glass. Stir, and garnish with orange wedges.
