Rosemary Lemon Drop

The only thing that is probably better than a lemon drop cocktail is a rosemary lemon drop cocktail.  Deeply infused with the intense and woodsy flavor of that unforgettable herb, the key to this irresistible version of the classic lemon drop is an easy rosemary simple syrup. When combined with fresh lemon juice and good vodka, the result is one downright extraordinary drink.
