Gin Fizz with Garden Herbs
This cocktail is light and fresh, and since it’s officially spring herb season feel free to sub the rosemary for your favorite or what you have in your garden!
Ingredients (serves two):
- 2 oz gin
- 1/4 cup Sauvignon Blanc
- 1/4 cup fresh berries (raspberries or cranberries work well)
- 2 oz lime juice
- Two tablespoons raw honey
- About six or seven mint leaves
- A rough tablespoon of rosemary
- Two sprigs of rosemary for garnish
- Ice for the shaker
- Topo Chico
- Two small coupe glasses or some mismatched glassware like these.
Muddle the berries and herbs until the berries mush and you can smell them mixing with the rosemary and mint. Add the honey and muddle to mix. Add the gin, wine and lime juice and shake vigorously.
Pour equal amounts in to the glasses (they will be about half full). Top off with Topo Chico and add rosemary for garnish.

I am a mom of two and wife to a martial arts school owner, full-time social media professional and avid cook and gardener. I love creating recipes and involving my kids in the process. The food we cook is usually dairy-free and gluten-free, and sometimes paleo, but we make exceptions (ahem, sourdough bread). The “hippie” part of this blog comes into play in the ingredients we use—I’m pretty vigilant about the health of my family and you could even call me “crunchy.” The “modern” part is that I am busy! You won’t catch me making my own nut milk or churning butter (not that there’s anything wrong with that). I’m more than happy to take the shortcuts provided by our lovely grocery stores and online shopping —especially in the midst of this global pandemic.
