Creating festive cocktails is one of my favorite things about the Holiday Season! It’s so easy and so much fun to take a classic cocktail and implement an ingredient to make it more festive while you’re entertaining! This cocktail is a pretty traditional gin fizz but with the addition of rosemary flavor to give it some Holiday flair!
This cocktail is super easy to make, and the essence of the rosemary is added by making a rosemary simple syrup. I also love how the drink is clear, and it looks so posh garnished with a rosemary sprig.
I hope you all have an amazing weekend! You should definitely add this cocktail to your Holiday Cocktail Arsenal. I’d love to hear what you think!
