Strawberry Hibiscus Limeade Recipes

Steps:

• Place lime juice, cold water, sugar, and strawberries in blender and blend on high until smooth. While blender is running, add ice cubes one at a time.

Steps:

• Bring water to a simmer in a small saucepan. Remove from heat, add tea bags, and steep for 30 minutes. Discard tea bags, and pour tea into a pitcher. Let cool completely.
• Combine strawberries and sugar in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Heat until strawberries release their juices, about 25 minutes. Strain through a sieve into the pitcher. (Stir gently, but do not press strawberries or juice will become cloudy.)
• Add lemon juice and simple syrup to the pitcher, and stir to combine. Divide juice among ice-filled glasses. (Or cover, and refrigerate for up to 3 days.)

Steps:

• The night before serving, make the pineapple ice cubes: Pour pineapple juice into an ice cube tray, and allow to freeze overnight.
• To a large pot, add 6 cups of water and bring to a boil over high heat. (Alternatively, you can boil the water in a tea kettle.)
• Add the mint leaves to a pitcher, and muddle them to release oils. To the pitcher, add the tea bags, boiling water and lime juice. Stir to combine, then steep for 15 minutes.
• While the tea steeps, purée strawberries in a blender. (You should have about 1 cup purée.)
• Add strawberry purée and hibiscus syrup to the pitcher, stir and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Add pineapple ice cubes, if using, to each glass, and pour limeade over. Serve garnished with fresh strawberries, lime slices and mint.

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, mix both berries and sugar. Heat over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until berries release their juices and sugar is dissolved.
• Using immersion blender or in regular blender, puree berry mixture until smooth. Pour mixture through fine mesh strainer set over large bowl; press berries to extract as much puree as possible. Discard solids; set berry syrup aside to cool to room temperature.
• In 4-cup glass measuring cup, combine boiling water and tea bags; let steep 5 minutes. Remove bags; set tea aside to cool.
• In large pitcher, mix lemon juice and water. Add cooled berry syrup and hibiscus tea; stir well to combine. Serve over ice.

Steps:

• Combine the lime juice and chamomile simple syrup in a large (16- to 18-ounce) tumbler and stir to combine. Taste and add more lime juice or syrup, if you'd like.
• Fill with ice, top off with the seltzer and gently mix to combine. Garnish with lime slices, or an organic edible flower, if you are feeling extra fancy.
