Ingredients
- 1 ounce lime juice
- 1 ounce hibiscus syrup (see Notes 1)

Instructions
- Add the lime juice, hibiscus syrup, pineapple juice, gin and ginger bitters to a cocktail shaker.
- Fill the cocktail shaker with ice, seal it up and shake well, about 15-20 good shakes.
- Add fresh ice to your cocktail glass and place a lime slice garnish inside the glass, between the glass and the ice.
- Strain the drink into the cocktail glass.
- Pour the lime-flavored seltzer over top of the drink, and then serve. Optionally, you can add a dried hibiscus flower to the top of the drink.
Notes
- You can purchase premade hibiscus syrup (Amazon link), or use my Hibiscus Syrup recipe to make your own.
- I used Malfy Gin (link to purchase from Total Wine), which is a modern style dry gin. Citrus gin, like Malfy Con Limone, would also work well in this drink.
