Ingredients

Syrup:

  • 1 cup sugar

  • 1 cup water

  • cup packed fresh rosemary leaves

  • cup coarsely chopped fresh ginger

  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Cocktails:

  • 1 cup gin

  • 1 cup rosemary-ginger simple syrup

  • 1 cup sparkling water

  • ½ cup fresh lime juice

  • 10 ice cubes

Directions

  1. Bring all syrup ingredients to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Boil, stirring until sugar has dissolve, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Let stand, covered, 1 hour at room temperature.

  2. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, pushing down on solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Refrigerate until ready to use.

  3. Combine gin, 1 cup of the rosemary-ginger simple syrup, sparkling water, and lime juice in a cocktail shaker. Add ice cubes and shake until well-chilled. Strain 3/4 cup each into 8 glasses and serve.

Recipe Tip

This recipe uses just 1 cup of the simple syrup. Refrigerate leftover syrup in a jar for a week or so.
