You’ll Love This Hibiscus Martini Recipe
This vodka martini recipe skips the more savory Vermouth in favor of a little hibiscus liqueur.
Paired with vodka and Hibiscus Cooler juice, the flavor is fruity, a little bit herbal and totally delicious.
I feel in love with hibiscus cocktails when I made a Grapefruit Hibiscus Cocktail a few years ago.
It’s an unusual flavor that is totally addicting and one that I crave!
What does Hibiscus Taste Like?
Hibiscus has a tart flavor with a subtle hint of flowers. You may also notice that hibiscus has a cranberry-esque flavor.
Fruitlab Hibiscus Liqueur is delicious and is a great way to get that tasty flavor to cocktails. The consistency is thicker than juice and has a more concentrated flavor.
I also used Hibiscus Cooler juice which has a thinner consistency and a more juice-like flavor.
Both of these together make a truly delightful base flavor for this hibiscus vodka cocktail.
How to Add Hibiscus to Your Cocktails
There are a variety of ways to add hibiscus flavor to your cocktails! I’ve mentioned two above, but there are a few more:
- Hibiscus Flowers in Syrup
- Hibiscus Tea
- Agua de Jamaica
- Hibiscus Vodka
- Hibiscus Water
If you love this flavor, try all of the varieties above. They are all a great way to get a flavorful cocktail!

I got this Fruitlab Hibiscus Liqueur at my local Bev Mo and while I typically don’t buy things that not everyone would have, this was worth the trip!

I’m terrible about making sure that I have the ingredients on hand before I start a recipe. I fell in love with Drizly for this reason!

Unfortunately, they don’t have this hibiscus liqueur but they do have lots of other hibiscus products! And vodka.
