Hibiscus Strawberry Gin Cocktail

I am so into gin at the moment.

Gimlets-Ramos Gin Fizz-Slings-Gin & Tonics-Martinis

I love them all.

I plan to serve a few gin cocktails this Valentine’s Day weekend and re-introduce my gal pals to the wonders of gin. Sadly most of my amigas are not the biggest fans of gin, but I think this cocktail will change their minds.

Vibrant, refreshing and fizzy – This cocktail is sure to transform them into gin fans.

The base of this cocktail is a homemade hibiscus strawberry syrup. I enjoy making my own cocktail syrups.  It allows me to tweak the flavor profile, I control the ingredients included and makes for easier entertaining.

You can make this homemade syrup a few days in advance and store in fridge. Perfect for impromptu get togethers plus it makes a great hostess gift.
