- 1 Orange slice
- Ice cubes
Instructions
Step 1: Gather your ingredients. Have your gin, tonic water, a fresh sprig of rosemary, and an orange ready. You’ll also need ice and a glass.
Step 2: Fill a glass with ice cubes. This will chill the drink and keep it refreshing.
Step 3: Pour 2 oz of gin over the ice. The gin provides the botanical base for the cocktail.
Step 4: Add 4 oz of tonic water to the glass. The tonic provides the bubbly and slightly bitter element.
Step 5: Gently clap a sprig of fresh rosemary between your hands to release its oils and place it in the glass. The rosemary adds an herbaceous and aromatic note.
Step 6: Garnish with a fresh slice of orange. The orange provides a bright citrus aroma and flavor that complements the rosemary and gin.
Step 7: Gently stir and enjoy your Rosemary Gin & Tonic Twist!
