Anyway.... Today I whipped up a little Rosemary Simple Syrup using fresh rosemary from my garden! I'm obsessed with herby things! I love a good Basil Mojito! I love Rosemary Butter Cookies! Lavender Shortbread! Rosemary Lemon Squares! So much goodness....
And so tonight, I'm hoping to make this delightful-looking cocktail made with Gin, Lemon Juice, and Rosemary Simple Syrup!!! I mean... c'mon!!!!
Sounds so great and so simple, and all I needed was the syrup....
I wanted plenty, so I used 1 cup of water, 1 cup of sugar, and 1/2 cup of rosemary (that'd been ground tiny in my coffee/spice grinder....)
I threw those 3 ingredients into a pan and brought it to a boil, making sure the sugar completely dissolved, then I took it off the heat and let it steep for 45 minutes! (I actually got busy and forgot and so it steeped a little longer... no biggie!)
I poured the mixture through a very fine strainer, put it in a quaint little jar, added another fresh sprig of Rosemary for visual pleasingness and that's that!!!
Yay and yay!
I'm sure it'll be delightful!!!
Hope you make your own!!!
