🇸🇳 Senegal recipe
Bissap Sorbet
Bissap Sorbet transforms Senegal's iconic hibiscus flower drink into a frozen dessert of stunning magenta beauty and refreshing tartness. The dried hibiscus flowers are steeped into a deeply colored, tangy infusion, sweetened, and then frozen into a smooth, icy sorbet with notes of fresh mint, ginger, and lime. It is the perfect cooling finale to a Senegalese feast, and a modern twist on the beloved bissap drink that is served at virtually every Senegalese gathering.
