Hibiscus-Ginger Syrup image

We love the combination of citrusy hibiscus, spicy fresh ginger, and aromatic cloves in this DIY cocktail syrup. It makes an excellent holiday gift, but be sure to save a bottle for yourself to make our Hibiscus Margarita.

Time 2h

Yield Makes four 12-ounce bottles (about 6 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 cups sugar
24 whole cloves (1 teaspoon)
1 cup julienned fresh ginger (from a 4-ounce piece)
1 ounce dried hibiscus leaves (about 3/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Combine sugar, cloves, ginger, and 4 cups water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high, stirring until sugar is dissolved (if it begins to boil, reduce heat -- boiling will make the syrup cloudy). Remove from heat; let steep 10 minutes. Stir in hibiscus leaves; let steep another 35 minutes.
  • Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large liquid-measuring cup; discard solids. Refrigerate until completely cool, 1 hour. Pour into gift bottles. Syrup can be stored in bottles, refrigerated, up to 1 month.

This syrup is delicious, but it's a bit pricey. I'll probably only make it on special occasions.

I love the flavor of this syrup, but it was a bit too thick for my liking. I'll try thinning it out next time.

This syrup is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be great in cocktails or mocktails.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of ginger, but I was pleasantly surprised. The ginger flavor is subtle and perfectly balanced with the hibiscus.
