Notes
Sweetener
: White sugar is classic, but coconut sugar, honey, or agave work too.
Rosemary
: Use fresh sprigs for the best flavor.
Simmer, Don’t Boil
: A gentle simmer prevents caramelization and enhances flavor.
Adjust to Taste
: Add more rosemary or steep longer for stronger flavor; increase sugar for extra sweetness.
Variations
: Try mint, ginger, or lemon juice for a unique twist.
Storage
: Store in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to a month.
Serving
: Use a clean spoon or funnel to avoid contamination.
