Pomegranate Margarita
There are many types of margaritas but hands down, this is our favorite way to enjoy this refreshing lime-y cocktail… with a kick of pomegranate liqueur!
Right now I’m thinking about mixing up a couple of these
I remember last time I made them I said “Man, these are good, wish I had another.”
Today I’ll plan ahead
Measure out 1 1/2 ounces of pomegranate liqueur, 1 ounce of tequila, 1/2 ounce of triple sec and 1/2 ounce of fresh lime juice per cocktail
Pour over ice, give a stir and enjoy with your favorite Happy Hour friends!
Cheers!

Rosemary Grapefruit Spritzers
Ahh… refreshing
I guarantee that’s what you’ll say when you enjoy this citrusy cocktail with a hint of rosemary
Let’s start by making a rosemary infused simple syrup
Measure one cup each of water and sugar, bring to a boil over medium heat and simmer until the sugar is dissolved
Add in a spring of fresh rosemary and simmer for about 5 minutes more. Turn off the heat and let steep for 10 minutes
You can do this step ahead of time and keep the rosemary infused simple syrup in the fridge
Or, if you’re like me and don’t plan ahead, you can stick it in the freezer for a bit to chill down
Measure out 2 ounces of vodka, 1/2 cup of ruby red grapefruit juice, 1/4 cup of rosemary simple syrup and a splash of seltzer per cocktail
You’ll still get the great rosemary flavor but less sweetness if you prefer to only add in 1/8 cup of the simple syrup
Pour over ice, stir and enjoy this refreshing cocktail with your favorite happy hour friends!
It’s five O’clock somewhere!
Cheers!
