Ingredients
Method
  1. 1

    Add Scotch whisky, fresh lemon juice, and rosemary simple syrup to a highball glass filled with ice.

  2. 2

    Stir gently for 10-15 seconds to combine and chill the ingredients.

    💡 Ensure the syrup is well mixed into the spirits and juice.

  3. 3

    Top the glass with club soda.

    💡 Pour slowly to minimize foam and retain carbonation.

  4. 4

    Give one final, gentle stir and garnish with a rosemary sprig and a lemon wheel.

    💡 Express the lemon wheel over the drink before placing it in.

Bartender's Tip

🍸 Gently slap the rosemary sprig before garnishing to release its aromatic oils and enhance the drink's fragrance.

Why It Works

The bright acidity of lemon and the herbaceous lift of rosemary provide a lively counterpoint to the often-malty notes of blended Scotch, while simple syrup softens the edges and soda water adds a crisp effervescence.
