🥄 Ingredients

  • 4 cups water
  • 1 cup dried apricot
  • ½ cup pitted prunes
  • ½ cup dried mango
  • ½ cup dried hibiscus flowers ((can be easily found in most Hispanic grocery stores, sometimes labeled as “flor de jamaica”))
  • ½ cup white granulated sugar
  • 4 tablespoons chili lime seasoning ((like Tajín))
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice ((about 1 lime))

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan or pot, add water, dried apricots, prunes, dried mango, dried hibiscus flowers, granulated sugar, and chili lime seasoning. Bring to a boil.

  2. Once boiling, cover and reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes.

  3. Turn off the heat and uncover. Allow the mixture to cool for about 10-15 minutes.

  4. Add mixture into a food processor or blender along with lime juice and blend until smooth. Taste for seasoning and add more lime juice or chili lime seasoning if desired. For a more runny consistency, add more water 1 tablespoon at a time.

  5. Transfer chamoy into glass containers for storage. Serve with fresh fruit or rim glasses for drinks and cocktails.
