A mood-boosting and delicious mocktail featuring hibiscus, which has anti-depressant properties and is beneficial for skin. This recipe makes one of the author's favorite non-alcoholic drinks, inspired by @alexafuelednaturally.
Start by making the sweetened hibiscus juice. Simmer water and spices (cinnamon and ground cloves) for about 7 minutes. Then, add the dried hibiscus flowers and cane sugar and simmer for another 7 minutes. Transfer the juice to a glass and let it cool completely. To make your non-alcoholic margarita, add lime juice, NA tequila, NA cointreau, and the cooled hibiscus juice to a shaker with ice. Shake well until thoroughly chilled. Garnish glasses with sugar and dried hibiscus flowers before serving. Enjoy!
