Ingredients & Substitutions
Dried hibiscus flowers are the star here, giving that gorgeous color and tart flavor. If you can't find them, you could substitute with a berry herbal tea, but it won't have the same zing. Maple syrup is my go-to sweetener, but agave or even a bit of stevia can work, too.
Tips & Notes
- •I love to keep a batch in the fridge for hot days; it’s so refreshing!
- •Try using different berries based on what's in season to mix things up.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll add a splash of orange juice for a citrus twist.
- •You could also infuse it with a sprig of mint for an extra layer of flavor.
Storage & Freezing
Store any leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just remember to add more sparkling water if you like it fizzy!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can make the hibiscus base a day in advance and just add the sparkling water right before serving.
