Sorrel (a Favourite Bajan Christmas Drink)
  1. 1 Bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Place 1 cup of sugar in a jug and add boiling water. Stir until the sugar dissolves.

  2. 2 Place dried sorrel in a large bowl, along with grated ginger, the juice of one lime , the cinnamon stick and cloves.

  3. 3 Gently pour boiled water and sugar mixture into the bowl.

  4. 4 Allow to sit and steep for approx. 45 minutes. Overnight refrigeration for 24-48 hrs will result in a more potent flavor.

  5. 5 Strain when ready to serve, to remove excess grounds.

  6. 6 Optional: Add simple syrup and/or rum (in which case Barbados’ Mount Gay Rum is recommended!)

  7. 7 Serve over ice and enjoy!
