Perfect for Day Drinking: Hibiscus Rose Gin and Tonic

Hibiscus Rose Gin and Tonic
I’ve been deep cleaning my kitchen for the last three days. Is it anxiety, or just plain boredom, who can say. My stove top and cutlery drawer has never been cleaner. The one thing that’s making these ground hog days and menial labor a bit more palatable, other than a good pod cast (right now I’m listening to season  4 of The Fall Line), is a fun cocktail. 

I was looking for something refreshing and low ABV that I could sip while cleaning out my fridge. I’ve never infused gin or anything else with hibiscus and I forgot how astringent and sour it can be. Needless to say, even after a brief time it was pretty potent. In an attempt to make it a little smoother I milk-washed it. This Gin and Tonic ended up being more like an aperitivo with a nice floral scent.
