Ingredients

For the Rosemary Simple Syrup:

• 1 cup water
• 1 cup sugar or Monk Fruit sweetener (see note)
• 2 Rosemary sprigs

For the Spritzer:

• 2 shots LALO Tequila
• 1 shot freshly squeezed orange juice
• 1 shot Rosemary Simple Syrup
• Champagne to top
• Rosemary sprigs for garnish

Instructions

Make the Simple Syrup:

• Add the sugar and water to a small saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Once dissolved, set aside and add the rosemary sprigs and let it cool. Strain before using.

Make the Spritzer:

• In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, orange juice, simple syrup with ice and shake.
• Strain into glasses and top with champagne and a sprig of rosemary!

Notes

The recipe for the simple syrup will make more than what you need to serve two. If you are only serving two, I would half the recipe but I figure many will be making this for a group! 

If using Monk Fruit, this will crystallize if not used immediately. So if you want to have extra syrup on hand, I would recommend using real sugar and you can keep stored in the fridge for one month.
