First of all, I'm sharing a new favorite summer drink recipe that calls for little herbage from my garden. Summertime in Paris. I gravitated toward this cool cocktail because of it's clever use of Rosemary. I recently planted a vegetable + herb garden and I'm finding any excuse to incorporate my harvest into my recipes.
Summertime in Paris
Ingredients
1 1/2 oz SKYY Infusions Citrus Vodka1/2 organic rosemary sprig
1/2 oz Meyer Lemon juice
1/2 oz lemongrass simple syrup
Dash of soda
Directions
Muddle rosemary with lemon juice and simple syrup in a shaker. Add ice and SKYY Infusions Citrus Vodka and shake. Strain over fresh ice in a rocks glass and top with soda. Garnish with fresh rosemary sprig and serve.*recipe from: Marie Claire
