Rosemary-infused cocktails
A Rosemary Gin Fizz is a refreshing, herbaceous cocktail that combines the botanical notes of gin with the aromatic, piney flavor of fresh rosemary. It typically includes gin, rosemary simple syrup, fresh lemon juice, and club soda, and is often served in a tall glass with a rosemary sprig for garnish. This modern cocktail has its roots in classic gin-based drinks but has become a popular contemporary twist in bars and home mixology.
