Grapefruit Rosemary Mocktail

‘Grapefruit Rosemary Mocktail’, an easily made, refreshing drink with a hinting of rosemary ☺👌🏻💕🍊🌿

I figured with warmer days finally seeming to be upon us, that it was now timely to share this recipe, which I found via Pura Vida Bracelets Blog.

 

Serves 4 in small to medium size glasses.

What you’ll need :

2 grapefruits
3 stems of fresh rosemary
1/3 cup water
1/3 cup sugar
2 Club sodas

What you’ll do :

Chill the club soda ahead of time.

On low heat, combine the sugar, water and rosemary until the sugar is dissolved.

Juice your grapefruit.

To serve :

Pour 1/2 cup of grapefruit juice into your glasses.
Add in 2 tbsp of the sugar water mixture and top of the rest of your drink with club soda, I used one with a hinting of lemon flavour.
Garnish with a few sprigs of the rosemary!

 

‘Clink, Clink’, enjoy!

But, Mother came home and I popped open a can of the tea she’d found and though certainly different from the Holland one, it’s a fabulous replacement until such a time as I can drink the real stuff! Continue reading “National Iced Tea Day🍹”
