I wanted a “special drink” for my grandchildren that they could have during happy hour at the cottage. This is what I came up with. It has a mix of citrus flavours with those from the Ontario woods. The rosemary hints at the resinous aroma of pine.
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup cranberry cocktail
splash of blueberry juice
1 Tbsp limeaid concentrate
Soda water
Grapefruit slice
1 sprig Rosemary
Mix juices together and add soda water to taste. Bruise the rosemary and skewer the grapefruit with it to add as a garnish.
Add a shot of rum and it becomes “Chasing the sunset”.
