Mother’s Day Rose Cocktail

While flowers and fruit bouquets are always lovely gifts, it’s always fun to get something totally different – something that is playful, creative, and like nothing you would ever buy or make for yourself.  This Mother’s Day Rose Cocktail is all of the above.  Plus it has gin, and I am a sucker for nice, floral gin 😉

2 Rose Cocktails garnished with raspberries

This Rose Cocktail is a great addition to any home cooked meal, or perfect to sip on while relaxing outside in the sun.

Ingredients [Makes 1 drink]

-2 oz. Gin- New Amsterdam

-1 oz. Rose syple syrup (see recipe below)

-1/2 oz fresh lemon juice

-2 oz. Soda water

* Smack the rose petals between the palm of your hands to release the fragrance and oils before placing on the top of the mother’s day rose cocktail. Voila!

* You can omit the gin to make this drink alcohol-free, and it will still be yummy!
