Jingle Bell Smash
Looking for a fun and festive cocktails for the holidays? This ‘Jingle Bell Smash’ is my winter take on a whiskey smash that’s made with a rosemary simple syrup and cranberry juice (plus your favorite bourbon of course!).

Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
In a shaker or cocktail mixer filled with ice, combine the cranberry juice, bourbon, simple syrup and lemon juice. Shake/ stir to combine.
- Step 2
Strain into a cocktail glass, garnish and ENJOY!
Notes
- Step 3
*you can sub the simple syrup and use maple syrup instead (which is what I do when I’m feeling really lazy).
- Step 4
*to make the sugared rosemary: wet the sprig of rosemary and shake off any excess water. toss in sugar and let sit for 30 minutes to dry.
To make Rosemary Simple Syrup:
- Step 5
In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 1 cup sugar, and 3 sprigs of rosemary and place over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a simmer and lower the heat a bit. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes at which time the sugar should have completely dissolved and the syrup started to thicken. Let cool slightly, remove the rosemary, and then pour into an air tight container for storage.
