With this cold crisp weather, I think it's time for a delicious winter cocktail. We spend a lot of time in the house this time of year and I like to go out a bit. On Sunday afternoons I often put a delicious drinks board on the table. With that I often choose a beer or wine, but this time I made a nice cocktail. This winter cocktail with Cabernet Sauvignon and rosemary honey syrup was a real hit!

How do you make the winter cocktail?

Rosemary honey syrup

Heat the water in a saucepan, just before it comes to a boil add the sprigs of rosemary. Let this steep for 5 to 7 minutes with a closed lid

Then take out the rosemary and stir in the honey until it is dissolved and a syrupy texture is formed.

Remove the syrup from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.

Your rosemary honey syrup is ready, it is best to store the syrup in the refrigerator after it reaches room temperature.

Winter cocktail

For this cocktail, it is best to use a red wine glass with or without a foot for the best taste and, of course, a nice look.

Add the cabernet sauvignon, rosemary honey syrup, cherry juice and lemon juice to the glass, stir briefly and finish your cocktail with a little powdered sugar for garnish. Cheers! Don't forget to make a delicious drink plate to go with it?

Winter cocktail

You often make a wonderful winter cocktail with a part of a bottle of wine. It is a shame if you have to throw this wine away because it is open for too long. The solution for this is: itCoravin Wine system! With this system you puncture the cork of an unopened bottle with a hollow thin needle. When you have used the wine for the cocktail, remove the needle from the cork again. This way your bottle of wine continues to taste like new! The needle squirts Edel Argon Gas in the bottle and this ensures that there is no oxygen to the wine, so that the wine retains its taste. Super handy and nowadays you have all kinds of trendy variants!
