    How do you make your Rosemary simple? I make mine by bringing my simple to a simmer, then tossing in fresh sprigs, covering and let steep until the syrup cools. I’m never satisfied with it, though. The rosemary flavor gets buried under the sugar, and the aroma isn’t strong enough to cut through a drink when using 1oz or less

      I’ve done basically that, except mince the rosemary first and then strain it after it’s cooled. I think the chopping makes a difference!

        Thanks! I’ll give that a shot. We use it at work for a Rosemary Paloma. Delicious, but it could really use more rosemary flavor! I actually considered finding some rosemary extract to add to it
