Incredible aromas of roses, oranges, rosemary and grapefruit combine in this deliciously lady-like cocktail. The honey-rosemary syrup is a perfect sweetener, adding not just sweetness, but the complexity of honey combined with savory rosemary. Subtle Whisper Dry Vermouth and intense Essensia are complementary and add additional complexity as a base to this lovely cocktail.
