Method
Cocktail Base
Measure and mix
In a mixing glass or small pitcher, combine 6 tbs gin, 2 tbs elderflower liqueur, 1 tbs fresh lime juice, and 1 tsp simple syrup. Stir gently for 10–15 seconds to integrate and slightly chill the mixture.
Taste adjustment
Taste the base mixture and adjust sweetness or acidity if needed: add up to 1/2 tsp more simple syrup for sweetness or an extra 1/2 tsp lime juice for more brightness. Stir again after adjusting.
Assemble & Finish
Prepare glasses
Divide ice evenly between two highball or rocks glasses (about 1/2 cup ice per glass). Place one lime wheel and one rosemary sprig into each glass, tucking the rosemary alongside the glass wall for aroma.
Combine with sparkle
Pour half the chilled cocktail base into each glass over the ice and aromatics. Top each glass with 1/2 cup chilled sparkling water (total 1 cup for both servings). Stir gently once or twice to combine without flattening the bubbles.
Garnish and serve
Float an edible flower on the surface of each drink if using, and gently slap the remaining rosemary sprigs between your palms to release oils, then rest them on the glass rim. Serve immediately.
