The Rosemary Blue belongs to the Highball family, a refreshing group of long drinks typically featuring a spirit, a mixer, and often a garnish. This contemporary twist on the classic Gin & Tonic incorporates the herbaceous notes of rosemary, bringing a modern touch to a timeless favorite.
The Rosemary Blue is a refreshing and herbaceous cocktail with a balanced sweetness. The gin provides a juniper-forward base, while the Blue Curacao adds a touch of sweetness and a vibrant blue hue. Rosemary sprigs impart a fragrant, earthy note, and the tonic water adds a subtle bitterness and a crisp, bubbly texture.
Muddle rosemary sprigs gently to release oils, but don’t bruise them. Use a good quality gin for a balanced flavor. For a stronger rosemary flavor, use fresh rosemary. Chill all ingredients before mixing to ensure a refreshing drink. Garnish with a rosemary sprig and a lime wedge.
