Daisy's Homemade Chamoy
. sweet . sour . spicy . salty .

3/4 cup dried apricots
1/2 cup dried plums
1/2 cup dried hibiscus flowers
3 cups filtered water
6 tablespoons chili powder or Tajin
1/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup fresh lime juice

In a medium pot, bring all ingredients, except the lime juice, to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes.
Turn off heat and let cool for around 10-15 minutes.
Add everything to a blender, including the lime juice, and blend well.
Check for liquid consistency; chamoy can be thick or thin. Add a few more tablespoons of water for a drizzling consistency.
Pass through a large sieve into a large bowl. Transfer to glass jars and store in refrigerator. I like to reuse jam jars.
My favorite way to eat chamoy is with fresh fruit (mango, strawberry, pineapple, grape), but it's also amazing swirled into a smoothie or topped on sorbet.
