What Is In A Hibiscus Margarita?
TEQUILA
Make sure to always use a good quality tequila when making any kind of Margarita. You don’t need to break the bank, but definitely don’t go cheap on the brand!
ORANGE LIQUEUR
Cointreau is always my favorite and I believe is the best and I think perfect for this Hibiscus Margarita, however you can go with Triple Sec if you don’t want to spend $30 on a bottle of Cointreau!
LIME JUICE
Always use freshly squeezed lime juice for any drinks you make!
HIBISCUS SIMPLE SYRUP
You can easily make this at home in less than 10 minutes. Recipe and instructions for that are below!

- Add 1 cup of water, 1 cup sugar and 3/4 cup dried hibiscus flowers to a boiling pot.

Sugar Or Salted Rim For A Hibiscus Margarita?
I would definitely say SUGAR! I think with the fruity and sweet flavors of the hibiscus simple syrup, sugar would be the way to go for this Hibiscus Margarita! However you can always taste test first and if salt works for you, well then go with that!
