for the rosemary simple syrup

  • In a small sauce pan add the sugar, water and rosemary sprigs. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally to help dissolve the sugar.
  • Let simmer for 15 minutes. Remove the rosemary sprigs and strain the water through a sieve into a container. Store in the fridge.

Notes

Rosé is typically considered a summertime wine. Do not let this deter you from making this drink. The flavor of the grapes and the rosemary pair beautifully with the wine, making it a delicious wintertime cocktail. To make it “bubbly” use sparkling rosé.
