Smoked Rosemary Lemon Drop
A moody twist on a classic favorite.
This bold, herbaceous cocktail balances the brightness of fresh lemon with the smoky depth of dried rosemary—and just the right kiss of sweetness from our Rosemary Syrup. Perfect for impressing guests or unwinding with something sultry and sophisticated.
Ingredients
1 tsp dried rosemary leaves 🌿
1 ½ oz fresh lemon juice 🍋
1 oz The Michelyn Collection Rosemary Syrup
1 ½ oz vodka
Ice
Optional garnish: smoked rosemary sprig
Instructions
On a wooden cutting board, sprinkle dried rosemary leaves. Carefully light them with a lighter and cover with an upside-down cocktail glass to infuse smoke.
While the glass is smoking, add lemon juice, Rosemary Syrup, and vodka into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
Shake vigorously—count 10 shakes to chill and blend the flavors beautifully.
Flip the smoked glass upright, strain the cocktail into it, and garnish with a sprig of smoked rosemary for a dramatic finish.
Sip on sophistication and enjoy!
💡 TMC Tip:
Hosting a dinner party? Line up the glasses and smoke them right before serving to wow your guests. Want to keep it zero-proof? Swap vodka for a botanical non-alcoholic spirit and still enjoy the smoky sophistication.
