Hibiscus Margarita

SAVE & SHARE:

Nothing says Cinco de Mayo like a refreshing margarita, especially this take on the classic with infused Hibiscus tea and fresh-squeezed orange juice. In the video I used lime juice, which is classic for any margarita, but since then I’ve tweaked the recipe and I love it with the Cava orange juice. Feel free to try either and let me know what you think!
