Jamaican Margarita image

Hibiscus started showing up in New York City cocktails around 2010, jazzing up drinks with its fuchsia hue and tropical perfume. This one, adapted from the bar at Hecho en Dumbo in the East Village, takes advantage of jarred hibiscus syrup and top-shelf silver tequila to create a kind of Jamaican-Mexican melange. The wild hibiscus blossom specified at the end of the recipe? Entirely optional!
