Serving Suggestions
Woodford & Warner Ltd manufactures exotic non alcoholic Sorrel drinks, cordials and unique sorbets. Our Sorrel is freshly manufactured using our traditional recipe from Trinidad. We also have a Sorrel & Ginger range available now. It is made from the Hibiscus Sabdariffa flower and is subtly flavoured with cinnamon and cloves. Sorrel is incredibly versatile. Drinks can be diluted to taste, served hot or cold, still or sparkling. It has been enjoyed as a family drink for many generations across the world however its aromatic nature lends itself wonderfully as a mixer and a base for tropical mocktails and cocktails. We would like to share a few of our favourites with you. Sorrel Straight Up Half fill a tall glass with lots of ice. Add the required amount of Sorrel and stir it thoroughly. Stir regularly to maintain the preferred concentration.
