Mocktail Nonalcoholic Version Substitutions
Rose Tea

Method
 

Rose Tea
  1. To make rose tea, steep 1/2 tablespoons dried rose petals in 1/2 cup hot water. Let steep 5-10 minutes. Chill, if possible. You can also try using rose tea bags if you do not have dried rose petals.
Drink Recipe Instructions
  1. Lightly smoke 1 rosemary sprig and drop into cocktail shaker and cover while you gather your next ingredient. If you are not a fan of smoked flavors in drinks, I suggest skipping this step and adding fresh rosemary instead.
  2. Add all ingredients to shaker, except for garnish.
  3. If using egg white, shake without ice first before proceeding.
  4. Add ice and shake.
  5. Strain into stemmed glassware, or over ice.
  6. Garnish with rose petals in shape of crescent moon. Add rosemary sprig and lightly smoke the end, to burn rosemary for remembrance. 

Notes

  • Egg White: If using egg white, you will do a double shake: shaking once without ice, then add ice and shake a second time before straining.
