  • 2 Tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla paste
  • 2 sprigs rosemary muddled (plus extra for garnish)
  • juice of 1 lime plus extra for garnish
  • slice or wedge grapefruit for garnish

Instructions

  • Rinse your cocktail glass then place it in a freezer to achieve a frost.
  • Meanwhile, combine liquid ingredients, muddled rosemary and powdered sugar in a cocktail shaker with ice. Give your cocktail tin a good shake, remove chilled glass from the freezer then strain ingredients into the glass.

Notes

If you really want the flavor of the vanilla to be subtle, just reduce the amount to 1 tsp. You can always add more!
