Equipment

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup dried hibiscus flowers (see note)
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 bottle rosé wine (see note)

Instructions

  • Rinse the hibiscus flowers in a fine mesh strainer under cold, running water. Set aside.
  • Bring the water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add the sugar and stir until dissolved. Stir in hibiscus flowers. Remove from heat and let the flowers steep until slightly cooled, about 15-20 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh strainer.
  • Pour the bottle of wine into a large, flat container, like a 9x13" baking pan or large food storage container (it's helpful if it has a well sealing lid). Stir in the hibiscus syrup. Cover with the lid, or with plastic and freeze until flaky, at least 6 hours. Scrape into a blender.

Notes

Dried hibiscus flowers are available in the Latin section of a well stocked grocery store, or in a Latin market. Alternatively, you can make a berry version. Simply follow the recipe above, but use ½ cup of raspberries or chopped strawberries in place of the hibiscus.
 
If you have a favorite rosé, go ahead and use it. You don't need to use an expensive wine here, since you'll be sweetening it up anyway. I used a medium priced one from Aldi and it worked out great.
