A hot pink frozen cocktail with the taste of tropical breezes, this cold rum indulgence is almost too pretty to drink. Tart, vitamin-packed hibiscus flower tea gets mellowed with a dab of sugar and frozen a few hours, so allow ample time before your party or happy hour to prepare this chilly base. A squeeze of lime and helping of rum brighten, then mellow the fruity drink. Break out your prettiest glasses for this daiquiri, and garnish it with a spring of fresh mint, a lime wheel on the glass, or a slice or two of strawberries on top.

• 4 tea bags, hibiscus variety
