1/2 oz. Rosemary simple syrup* Rosemary and/or cranberries for garnish
2. You can make a quick garnish for the
drink by dipping cranberries or rosemary in water, then generously sprinkling them in sugar to make a “snowy” look (let dry before using as a garnish).
*If making your own rosemary simple syrup, you’ll need 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of water, and 4 sprigs of fresh rosemary
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Add bourbon, cranberry juice, rosemary simple syrup, and lemon juice to a glass filled with ice. Stir to combine.
*If making your own rosemary simple syrup, combine water, sugar, and rosemary sprigs to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let the rosemary steep in the syrup for about 30 minutes. Pour syrup into a clean glass, using a mesh strainer to remove rosemary. Let cool.
