Start by making a rosemary simple syrup. Simple syrup may sound like a fancy thing that only bartenders can whip up out of thin air, but I\u2019m going to let you in on a little secret. It\u2019s so<\/em> easy to make your own simple syrup at home.<\/p>\n

Simply combine sugar and water, and in this case a few sprigs of fresh rosemary, and cook in a saucepan just until the sugar is dissolved. Discard the rosemary sprigs–the flavor is now infused into the simple syrup. And if you don\u2019t love rosemary, thyme or mint would be a good swap here.<\/p>\n

Once the syrup has chilled in the fridge, you can add it to your cocktail. Bonus: The leftover simple syrup can be stored and used in other drinks later! Combine that simple syrup you just whipped up with ice, grapefruit juice, and gin in a drink shaker. You can simply add ice to your glasses (or chill them) if you don\u2019t have a drink shaker. Pour your cocktail into glasses and top with tonic water, a grapefruit wedge, and a sprig of rosemary.<\/p>\n

The recipe makes three drinks, but you can scale it up or down, as always. Scroll on for the complete recipe–and happy sipping!<\/p>\n
