If you cannott be there in person, be there in spirit. You can dilute the concentrate with some cold water when you are done with the margaritas, and serve it as a nice iced tea with lunch.
1/3 cup dried hibiscus flowers
2 cups boiling water
2 oz tequila
1 T agave nectar
1 juicy lime
Mint sprigs
Make a concentrate of agua de jamaica by infusing the hibiscus flowers with the boiling water for about 5 minutes. Strain and cool.
Combine one shot of the concentrate with the tequila, lime juice, and agave nectar in a cocktail shaker with about a handful of ice. Shake it up hard and then pour into martini glasses. Garnish with the mint sprigs.
Serves two drinks.
