Drink Recipe: Rosemary Citrus Spritzer

  • 10

Ingredients

  • 4 (4-inch) sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 3/4 cups sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey

Preparation

Step 1



Juice the lemons and oranges into a liquid measuring cup – you should have about 1 cup of juice. Top off with water if necessary to make 1 cup.

Combine zest, juice, rosemary, sugar, and honey in a saucepan over medium heat. Boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly to dissolve the sugars.

Remove from heat and let sit 10 minutes. Strain, discard solids, and let syrup cool completely.

To serve, fill an 8-ounce glass halfway with ice cubes, add 2-3 tablespoons syrup, fill with soda water, and stir. Garnish with rosemary sprigs and/or lemon slices, if desired.

Variations:

• Add a splash of gin or vodka to the glass.
