Instructions
Boil the Petals
Bring the water to a boil in a medium pot, add the dried hibiscus petals, grated ginger, and cinnamon stick, then reduce heat and simmer gently for 10 minutes until the liquid turns a deep ruby red.
Sweeten the Drink
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the sugar while the liquid is still hot so it dissolves completely and evenly throughout the drink.
Strain and Cool
Pour the liquid through a fine mesh strainer into a large pitcher, discard the petals and spices, then allow the drink to cool to room temperature before refrigerating.
Serve Over Ice
Once chilled, pour the sorrel drink over plenty of ice in tall glasses and serve immediately as a beautiful and refreshing Caribbean treat that kids and adults both adore.
