Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves
  • 3 stalks fresh rhubarb, diced
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons white rum
  • Ice
  • Fresh rosemary sprig for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, simmer 1/4 cup water and 1 tablespoon sugar over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.
  2. Remove from heat and add fresh rosemary leaves, letting it steep for 5 minutes, then strain the syrup and let it cool.
  3. In a blender, combine diced rhubarb, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 cup water, and 1 tablespoon sugar, and blend into a coarse puree.
  4. Strain the rhubarb puree through a fine-mesh strainer into a medium bowl, squeezing pulp to release as much liquid as possible, and refrigerate the resulting juice.
