Made this cocktail for friends over last night.
Everyone loved them and they were so pretty.
Great for a winter get-together. The bourbon or whiskey you use definitely makes a difference so be sure to get a good one.
This is such a gorgeous cocktail! I love the rosemary twist!
Gorgeous flavor combination!
