Description

Directions

• To make spiced simple syrup, place all ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring. Simmer about 5 minutes and remove from heat. Let syrup cool completely in the pan before straining into a jar or measuring cup. This will make enough for plenty of drinks!
• Muddle grapefruit segments in the bottom of a cocktail shaker. Make sure to remove any piths to avoid bitterness.
• Add ice, gin and cooled simple syrup. Shake vigorously.
• Fill 4 glasses with ice. Strain gin mixture into glasses and top each with tonic. Garnish with grapefruit peel and rosemary (optional).
