Refreshing Passionfruit Sorrel Drink
While Sorrel (the dried sepals [the outer parts] of the genus Hibiscus [Roselle] flower which create a versatile and colorful red liquid when infused with hot water) is predominantly made around Christmas-time in the Caribbean (that’s when the flowers are ready for harvest), there’s no reason why this refreshing passionfruit and citrus infused version cannot be enjoyed all year long.
As it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to a rolling boil and cook for 8 minutes. Then remove the cinnamon stick and add the sugar. Stir to dissolve the sugar.
Scrape the seeds of the passionfruit into the pot along with the skins. Add the sliced orange at this point as well. Cook for a further 2-3 minutes.
Shut the stove off and allow it to cool for 2-3 hours and in the process the flavors will steep and develop further.
Once cooled completely, strain into a pitcher and hit it with the juice of the lime. Yes you may adjust the sweetness to your tolerance.
Keep in mind that if you add ice to the finished Passionfruit Sorrel drink, it will dilute a bit as the ice melts.
Store in the fridge for at least two weeks.
