Cashew Free Berry Hibiscus Spritzer
This vibrant, jewel-toned spritzer is the kind of drink that makes any occasion feel a little more special, whether you're hosting a summer gathering or just treating yourself on a Tuesday afternoon. Dried hibiscus flowers and fresh mixed berries are simmered together into a deeply colored concentrate that bursts with tart, floral flavor, then brightened with honey and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. The whole thing comes together with just a handful of wholesome, straightforward ingredients — no nuts, no nut-derived additives, nothing hiding in a store-bought syrup. Once the concentrate is chilled and poured over ice with sparkling water, you get a beautifully effervescent drink that looks like it came from a fancy café. A sprig of fresh mint and a lime slice on the rim take it completely over the top. It's naturally refreshing, endlessly customizable with whatever berries you have on hand, and genuinely easy to make ahead so it's ready when you need it.
