Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup rosemary dried
  • sprigs rosemary leaves fresh for garnish
  • servings ice cubes 
  •  juice of lime 
  • ounces rose hips 
  • ounces rose hips 
  • 0.3 cup rosemary 
  • ounces simple syrup glaze 
  • 18 ounces seltzer water 
  • 0.5 cup caster sugar 
  • ounces water 
  • ounces yuzu juice drink 

Equipment

  • food processor
  • sauce pan

Directions

  1. In a food processor, process the rosemary and sugar until fully combined, about 1 minute—there will be visible pieces of rosemary. DO AHEAD: Rosemary crystals can be prepared in advance and stored, in an airtight container at room temperature, up to 2 weeks.
  2. In a small saucepan, bring the rose syrup and distilled or tap water to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to moderate and simmer, uncovered, until reduced by half, 12 to 15 minutes. DO AHEAD: Rose elixir can be prepared in advance and refrigerated up to 2 weeks.
  3. Pour the lime juice onto a small plate and spread the rosemary crystals on a second small plate. Dip the rim of a 12-ounce glass into the lime juice, then dip it into the rosemary crystals to lightly coat. Repeat with a second 12-ounce glass.
  4. Pour 1 ounce each of rose elixir, yuzu juice, and simple syrup into each prepared glass.
  5. Add ice and enough soda water to fill each glass.
  6. Garnish drinks with rosemary sprigs.
