Hibiscus is layered with fresh ginger, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, orange peel and jasmine for a deep ruby-red elixir that's tart, spicy and wonderfully aromatic. Cranberry and pomegranate notes lead into warming spice and bright citrus, with enough complexity to sip simply or bring some serious personality to a cocktail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJoy's has swagger. It's tart, spicy, floral and a little bit sultry, with that glorious hit of fresh ginger keeping everything bright.
