Does anyone know of any alcoholic beverages made with rosemary?

We at the bar know of mojitos made with mint or basil. Basil or sage martinis. Yer we can think of nothing with the rosemary

Does anyone know of any alcoholic beverages made with rosemary?
I have never had it but I have seen a recipe for lemonade made with simple syrup infused with rosemary. Just steep fresh rosemary sprigs in equal parts of sugar and water unti the the sugar is well dissolved then sweeten your lemonade with it. At which point I would add gin. Sounds good to me.
Reply:I do not, but I have been experimenting a little. I learned that rosemary infused vodka doesn't work. Tastes like pine-sol. It may work if other herbs or flavors are added in combination, but rosemary alone was awful.


A mixed drink would have to have pretty strong flavors to stand up to rosemary.
