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 Place dried sorrel in a large bowl, along with grated ginger, the juice of one lime , the cinnamon stick and cloves.
3 Gently pour boiled water and sugar mixture into the bowl.
4 Allow to sit and steep for approx. 45 minutes. Overnight refrigeration for 24-48 hrs will result in a more potent flavor.
5 Strain when ready to serve, to remove excess grounds.
6 Optional: Add simple syrup and/or rum (in which case Barbados’ Mount Gay Rum is recommended!)
7 Serve over ice and enjoy!
