Grapefruit Rosemary Simple Syrup

  • Add all the ingredients for the syrup in a small pot and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and let the syrup steep and cool for about one hour.
  • Store it in a glass bottle or glass jar and keep refrigerates for up to one week. → If you don't like grapefruit zest in your drink, pour it through a fine-mesh sieve just before serving.

  • Add the syrup and then the fresh grapefruit juice in a cocktail glass.
  • Top it with sparkling water and ice cubes. Decorate with fresh rosemary or grapefruit slices.

Notes

  • Grapefruit: ∼ 3 fresh pink grapefruit should be enough to prepare the syrup and 4 drinks.
  • Syrup: Make the syrup one day in advance and store it in the refrigerator for a more flavorful syrup.
  • Syrup Yield: You can make up to 20 mocktails with the syrup, depending on how sweet you like them.
  • For Kids: If your kids don't like the bitter taste of grapefruit juice, serve them only the syrup topped with sparkling water.
  • Large Drinks: The serving size is for a small cocktail or champagne glass. Double the amount of ingredients if using regular glasses.
