Sorrel City's Father's Day Tribute
· 2 min read
On a warm June afternoon in Brooklyn, the smell of grilled meats and freshly cut grass fills the air, signaling the start of Father's Day celebrations. At Sorrel City, we believe that a special drink can bring families closer together, and what better way to honor dad than with a unique sorrel-and-rum cocktail, made with our hand-bottled Jamaican sorrel, available by the gallon, with optional rum, wine, or sugar, perfect for a backyard barbecue or a quiet evening at home.
A Sorrel City Twist on a Classic
According to some people, the combination of sorrel and rum is a match made in heaven, with the sweet and tangy flavors of the sorrel complementing the richness of the rum. Researchers have studied the cultural significance of sorrel in Caribbean cuisine, and it is often associated with warm seasonal rituals and special occasions, making it the perfect choice for Father's Day. To create this special cocktail, simply mix our sorrel with a splash of rum and a squeeze of lime juice, served over ice in a tall glass, garnished with a sprig of fresh mint and a few hibiscus petals.
Some people find that the flavor profile of sorrel is reminiscent of cranberry and pomegranate, with a hint of spice and a deep red color, making it a great choice for a Father's Day cocktail. At Sorrel City, we are committed to providing the highest quality, hand-bottled sorrel, made with love and care, just like grandma used to make.
