I have decided to embark on a journey to make a delcious Rosemary Cocktail. I keep seeing rosemary in bars and whenever I order the drinks with rosemary in them they are either way too sweet or just strange. So today was the day I started and I think it was a good test round. I wanted a light and refreshing drink with a hint of lemon. So off to Bev Mo I went. I bought limoncello, ginger beer and gin. I cut some sprigs of rosemary from my garden and muddled it in the glass. I then added just a splash of limoncello (a little bit goes a long way as it's very sweet). I topped that off with gin and a splash of Fever Tree ginger beer and then club soda. It's a pretty good start I will say for the cocktail but I will need to perfect the ingredients. The ginger beer is very spicy and over powers the rest of the drink if you use too much so it really only needs a splash but the flavor is amazing - so gingery and delicious and not sweet. It's a great summer afternoon refresher!
