Spicy Hibiscus Margarita

feat. Full Moon Tea Co. + Spice Witch Spicy Honey

This is not your average margarita. This is what happens when you take a classic, kick it up a notch, and make it wear something bold and hot pink.

We’re turning Full Moon Tea Co.’s hibiscus tea into the ultimate margarita base. Add in a spoonful of Spice Witch Spicy Honey, and you’ve got a cocktail that’s floral, tart, spicy, and totally unforgettable.


Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup Full Moon Tea Co. hibiscus tea, brewed strong and chilled

  • 1.5 oz silver tequila

  • 1 oz fresh lime juice

  • 1 oz orange liqueur (Cointreau or triple sec)

  • 1–2 tsp Spice Witch Spicy Honey

  • Salt or Tajín for the rim

  • Ice

  • Optional: Lime wedge or edible flower for garnish


Instructions:

  1. Brew the hibiscus tea and let it cool completely. Use 2x the usual tea amount for a stronger flavor.

  2. Rim your glass with lime and dip in salt or Tajín.

  3. In a cocktail shaker, combine the hibiscus tea, tequila, lime juice, orange liqueur, and Spicy Honey. Add ice and shake well.

  4. Strain into your prepared glass over fresh ice.

  5. Garnish, serve, and enjoy the moment.


Why it works:

  • Hibiscus gives a deep, tangy backbone

  • Spicy Honey layers in unexpected heat

  • It’s vibrant, easy to batch, and definitely not basic
