Equipment

  • Small saucepan
  • Cocktail shaker
  • Copa glass or a large wine glass

Ingredients

Rosemary syrup

  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 sprigs rosemary

Cocktail

  • 2 oz white rum
  • 3 oz orange juice freshly squeezed, from 1 orange
  • ½ oz lime juice
  • 2 dashes orange bitters
  • 2 oz soda water chilled
  • ice

Garnish

  • 1 slice orange
  • 1 sprig rosemary

Instructions

Rosemary syrup

  • Bring 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup water and 2 sprigs rosemary to a simmer in a small saucepan, stirring until the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes.
  • Take the pan off the heat and let the rosemary steep while the syrup cools, at least 20 minutes. Remove the rosemary. This makes enough syrup for about 4 cocktails.
  • The syrup keeps for 2 weeks in a jar in the fridge. Make it ahead and the cocktail takes 2 minutes.

Cocktail

  • Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add 2 oz white rum, 3 oz orange juice, 1/2 oz lime juice, 3/4 oz of the rosemary syrup and 2 dashes orange bitters. Shake hard for 15 seconds.
  • Strain into a copa glass filled with fresh ice and top with 2 oz soda water.
  • Clap 1 sprig rosemary between your hands to release its aroma and tuck it into the glass with 1 slice orange.

Notes

For a non-alcoholic version, leave out the rum and top the glass with extra soda water.
Blood oranges, when they are in season, turn this into a ruby-red drink.
