  • 3 ice cubes
  • 2 tsp gin
  • 3 oz rosé, chilled

Procedure
Rosé isn’t just for winter. Combine this favorite wine with rosemary simple syrup, gin, muddled grapes and a splash of lemon for a delicious wintertime rosé cocktail.

Place grapes into a cocktail shaker or cup, and pour the syrup over the fruit. Muddle the grapes.

Add the ice cubes and pour the gin over the ice. Cover and shake until the gin is chilled and the drink is well mixed.

In a small sauce pan add the sugar, water and rosemary sprigs. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally to help dissolve the sugar.

Let simmer for 15 minutes. Remove the rosemary sprigs and strain the water through a sieve into a container. Store in the fridge.
