Hibiscus Thyme Mai Tai

Are you dreaming of a trip to Fiji or Bali, or possibly Bora Bora?  Well, unfortunately I can’t get you there at the moment but I can offer up this cocktail that will mentally transport you to whichever tropical locale most has your heart!  It may be my favorite that I’ve ever posted.  You can imagine that while Lou was developing the recipe and I was taste testing I was a bit (ok, a lot) distraught that I could only take tiny sips.  It seems unfair to deny pregnant women cocktails!!!!  We may need them the most!  But that is neither here nor there.  The point is, this drink is a divine concoction and if I weren’t pregnant I’d be a plotting a backyard soiree just for an excuse to serve these to my friends.  The combination of the tropical fruit and the sweetness from the hibiscus, plus the grounding sophistication that the thyme brings elevates this cocktail to another level.  I’m a fan, a big fan who can’t drink them for the moment.  So please, if you’re not in the same boat have one on my behalf!!  xx- Sarah
