This is so refreshing! I infused the simple syrup instead of the vodka but followed the rest of the recipe as is. The flavor was good, so I'll try experimenting with the amounts. I added another couple of ounces of grapefruit juice so that the drink would have enough volume for a small Old Fashioned glass with lots of ice. This was such a small drink-just 3 ounces- it seems like some of the amounts must be off. I like it! There's a basil-infused vodka martini that's also good (do muddle the basil) with limeade to sweeten it up which is also a favorite of ours savory drinks are so good. !! The flavor comes through strong and quick.

You don't need a full 24 hours if you have a good fresh source of rosemary and don't do like I did and muddle it a little too. We noticed a distinct difference in color in a batch that had been in the liquor cabinet for a few weeks and just didn't make as magical a drink. The infused vodka is great after a day, but it seems to deteriorate after a few weeks. J wouldn't repeat even with upped grapefruit. And if you combine it the right way, you can make the most delicious mocktails.The ratios must be off for the grapefruit. You can use juice, herbs, soda, fresh fruit, and (sparkling) water. Therefore it's the most delicious to, when mixed with everything, serve it right away.Ī mocktail is an iced drink that is made by mixing different ingredients (all nonalcoholic).

Replace ⅓ cup of water with ⅓ cup of rum.This mocktail is delicious with sparkling water, but you can also use tap water.But if you prefer a slightly sweeter cocktail, you can also use red grapefruits. I use pink grapefruit juice for this mocktail because the color is so beautiful. The redder the grapefruit, the sweeter the taste.Garnish the mocktail with slices of grapefruit, sprigs of rosemary, and ice cubes.
