Recipe of the Week: Rosemary Bourbon Twist
Happy Friday, cocktail lovers! What could make the day better than knowing that the weekend has arrived? Certainly not much – except maybe for a new Recipe of the Week to try this evening!
This week’s cocktail is a creation born a few weeks ago from a few sprigs of rosemary we had left over from dinner (rosemary-crusted pork tenderloin – yum!). We had also just recently purchased some new bourbon, so this recipe seemed meant to be. With no more than a few household ingredients, this recipe is simple and refreshing – perfect for a relaxing evening to end the work week!
We find that rosemary pairs well with this beverage’s lemon-bourbon base, but if you can’t easily get your hands on some, mint works just as well! Let’s get started.

We hope you enjoy this one as much as we did! Have a great weekend!
