Sparkling Raspberry Lemon Drop

I LOVE lemon drops and my Mom taught me to always order them with a “champagne floater”- makes it taste extra delicious and feels fancier! And who doesn’t love a fancy festive cocktail!? This drink is as yummy as it is beautiful- so perfect for the holidays with its deep pink color and the rosemary sprig adds a touch of green!

Cheers to the Holidaze!

Recipe:

  • 20’ish fresh rosemary needless

  • Juice of 1/2 lemon

  • 4 fresh raspberries

  3. Fill shaker with ice and shake it up, baby!
