Hot hibiscus iced tea
Hibiscus tea is one of the most popular drinks in Jamaica and Burkina Faso, where the flowers are known as "roselle." The tea will require eight cups water and half a mug of dried hibiscus. Bring the mixture to boil. Allow it to simmer for 15 minutes. Take the mixture off the heat. Let it cool. Strain the tea. The tea can be served with sugar, honey, stevia, and/or honey. This tea contains high levels of Vitamin C as well as betacarotene.
Hibiscus is a tropical, earthy, and floral tea. This tea is native to West Africa, the Caribbean and South America. Its floral flavor comes from the petals of the hibiscus plant. Spices such as ginger, turmeric, and garlic round out the flavor. You can also add pineapple to give it a tropical touch.
Mulled hard Cider
Mulled cider tastes best when it is hot. You can add cinnamon sticks or orange slices to your Mulled Cider. To prepare this drink, start by heating the cider in a saucepan for about 10 minutes. Then, add the alcohol. You can choose from eight to 10 ounces of alcohol depending on the strength of the drink. To make the mulled apple cider even warmer, add the alcohol.
You can add other spices to the traditional spice mix, such as cinnamon and cloves. You can also add star anise and peppercorns to replace cinnamon. You can also add cranberry extract to the mix if you like.

How To
How To Make The Best Brandy Alexander Recipe
The first step in making any cocktail recipe is finding the right ingredients. Cognac is a French spirit made with fermented grapes. We will use it in this cocktail. It's usually clear, although sometimes you'll see it aged in oak barrels. You can buy cognac online at Amazon.com or specialty liquor stores.
Next, we'll add some simple syrup. Simple syrup is sugar dissolved into water. One cup of granulated white Sugar will be dissolved in a small saucepan. Heat on medium. Stir the mixture until it dissolves completely, which takes about 5 minutes. To cover the sugar, add 2 inches of cold tap water. Let stand overnight. Strain out sugar crystals by using cheesecloth. Keep the liquid in a sealed container in your refrigerator for at least 3 weeks.
For our Brandy Alexander Cocktail, we're going to combine Cognac and simple syrup together. Pour the Cognac into a shaker filled halfway with ice cubes. Fill the rest of the way with simple syrup. For 10 seconds, shake vigorously. Strain into a chilled martini glasses. Add a splash of soda water to the Brandy Alexander and garnish with a lemon twist.
