HIBISCUS SORBET
Red beverages made from strawberries (which grow in abundance in states where slavery proliferated, like Louisiana) and hibiscus, a plant native to West Africa, are particularly popular during Juneteenth celebrations. This hibiscus sorbet is flavored with spices and citrus that are reminiscent of bissap, a hibiscus-infused beverage enjoyed in countries like Guinea, or Sorrel, a festive beverage enjoyed during the holidays in Jamaica. Though bissap is typically tart, this sorbet toes the line between just-sweet-enough and barely-tart, thanks to the lime juice and the steeped hibiscus flowers. The steeped hibiscus flowers also provide a rich, deep and vibrant red color.

Steps:
- Place the hibiscus flowers if using, ginger, cinnamon sticks, cloves and 2 1/2 cups water in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, cover and steep for 15 minutes.
- Strain the liquid and discard the solids. Stir in the hibiscus syrup, corn syrup and lime juice. Cool to room temperature and then refrigerate until chilled, 2 to 4 hours.
- Freeze the mixture in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan and store, covered, in the freezer. If the sorbet is too hard when serving, let soften in the refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes.
