Cocktail

Passion Fruit - Rosemary Syrup (makes ~6 oz)

Method

Passion Fruit - Rosemary Syrup

1

Combine and heat

In a small saucepan combine 0.5 cups passion fruit pulp, 0.5 cups granulated sugar and 0.5 cups water. Add 2 fresh rosemary sprigs and (optional) 0.25 tsp lemon zest.

2

Simmer

Bring mixture to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Simmer for 6–8 minutes to extract rosemary aroma and reduce slightly.

3

Cool and strain

Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature (15–20 minutes) so rosemary infuses further. Strain out rosemary and any seeds/large solids through a fine mesh sieve into a clean container. Refrigerate until cold. Syrup will keep chilled for 10–14 days.

Cocktail Assembly

4

Chill glass

Chill a coupe or flute by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes or filling with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.

5

Build and shake

In a shaker filled with ice combine 2 oz Dillon's Selby Berry Bliss gin, 0.75 oz passion fruit-rosemary syrup and 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice. Shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until well chilled.

6

Strain

Discard ice from the chilled glass if used. Double-strain the shaken mixture into the chilled coupe or into a flute if you prefer more effervescence.

7

Top with sparkling wine

Carefully top the cocktail with 2 oz (about 1/4 cup) sparkling wine to add effervescence. Pour gently to preserve bubbles and avoid overflow.

8

Garnish and serve

Garnish with a small rosemary sprig and a lemon wheel or twist. Optionally float half a fresh passion fruit or spoon 1/2 tsp pulp on top for visual impact. Serve immediately.
