Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups water
1 cup white sugar
1 bunch fresh rosemary, chopped
ice cubes
3 fluid ounces bourbon
1 ½ fluid ounces orange liqueur
1 ½ fluid ounces amaro liqueur (such as Fernet Branca®)
½ lemon, juiced
2 dashes aromatic bitters (such as Angostura®)
2 sprigs fresh rosemary

Steps:

  • Combine water, sugar, and rosemary in a microwave-safe glass jar. Microwave and bring to a boil, about 2 minutes, watching carefully to ensure it doesn't boil over.
