Our Favorite Fall Cocktail –The Whiskey Rose

November 20, 2018

whiskey rose cocktail recipe with rosemary, lemon, and sparkling apple soda

 

Fall is in the air, and we are loving it. The brisk air, autumn leaves, and darker days makes us want to cozy up inside.

Oh, and did we mention cocktails?

Gone are the summer spritzers and rosé. We’re craving more earthy and robust flavors – full-bodied reds, fresh herbs, and whiskey! We have the perfect fall drink to add to your repertoire. With lemon, sparkling apple soda, whiskey, and fresh rosemary, the Whiskey Rose is fall in a glass.

With simple fresh ingredients and the perfect balance of sweet and savory, this cocktail is sure to impress.

Whether you’re hosting for the holidays, having a friend over for a drink, or staying in for a relaxing night at home – spice up your drink menu with our favorite cocktail of the season!

What You’ll Need

  • Rye Whiskey
  • Rosemary Simple Syrup
  • Fresh Lemon
  • Sparkling apple soda (we like this one)
  • Bitters
  • Fresh Rosemary for Garnish  

Whip this up on the spot for two or make a batch to serve your entire holiday gathering. Preparing the simple syrup in advance makes this recipe a breeze to put together, and it will keep in the fridge for up to 1 week.

 

 

If you haven’t made simple syrup before – don’t fear! It truly is simple, we promise! Mix the other ingredients directly in your glass and top it all off with a sprig of fresh rosemary. Perfection.

Ingredients (makes one perfect cocktail)

  • Rye Whiskey (1.5 oz)
  • Rosemary Simple Syrup (0.5 oz)
  • Fresh Lemon (0.5 oz)
  • Sparkling apple soda (4 oz)
  • Bitters (splash)
  • Rosemary for Garnish  

Rosemary simple syrup

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/3 cup rosemary leaves  

Instructions

For the simple syrup

  1. Fill glass with ice. Pour in rye whiskey
  2. Add a few dashes of bitters, simple syrup, and squeeze in fresh lemon (about half a lemon)
  3. Add sparkling apple soda and stir well to combine

It was a pleasure to work with Josh. He was knowledgeable, professional yet social, and provided high quality service. He also was willing to go above and beyond to assist in the set up and clean-up of our event. I look forward to future events with Party on the Rocks and hope that we can request for Josh specifically for future events!

I had the honor of working with Party on the Rocks at a wedding recently and they are great! There were 300+ guests, and they were able to serve everyone quickly and efficiently. They arrived on time, handled all of the set up the bar areas, and were ready to go when the guests starting arriving. They were really accommodating during planning, quick to respond and really knew all of the details for the day. I'm excited to see such a great new bartending service in the area, and look forward to working with them again!

Party on the Rocks truly rocks. They were referred by our Day of coordinator and I'm so happy that she did. I can't express how hard this team works and also their level of customer service. Truly professional and I love the family feel. We had a great bartender and two servers. So accommodating and considerate. I would definitely recommended them to anyone.

We hired Party on the Rocks to provide setup, tear down, and server service for my daughter's wedding. Claire and her team were awesome. They were super friendly, observant, and provided spot-on service for our guests. Plates, glassware, etc. were picked up in a timely fashion, and they even went above and beyond and provided beverage service for my 87-year-old mother who couldn't stand in line at the bar! I would highly recommend Party on the Rocks and would hire them again! Thank you Claire and team!

I cannot more highly recommend this event company! They were easy to work with scheduling and everything went smoothly. Claire was amazing and no less than a dozen guests commented to me how awesome she was and very, very helpful. Thanks Party on the Rocks!!!

- Russell J.

These guys are the real deal. We worked together for a wedding and we were thrown tons of curve balls! But these guys rolled with all of the challenges with a smile on their face. Definitely recommend!!!

I worked with Party On the Rocks recently and their bartender KaDeana did such an amazing job. Guests were commenting on how amazing the drinks were, and the clients were so impressed with how clean everything was throughout the night!!

- Torry W.

Claire and her team were so awesome. We hired Party on the Rocks to provide set up, tear down, and serving for my daughter's wedding. Their staff were super responsive, friendly and totally observant. In fact, they noticed that my 87-year-old mother's soda glass was empty, went to the bar and got her a fresh one, and brought it to her. She was thrilled and pleased! Above and beyond!

- Jessica C.

Try as I might I couldn't find a 6th star to click. Claire was wonderful to work with! I reached out to her about two months ahead of my wife's 50th birthday with a pleading, "Help I have to plan something epic and I'm unsure where to start!" From brilliant ideas, to managing absolutely everything, to the execution of an absolutely flawless event, Claire handled absolutely everything flawlessly. Ours was comparatively smaller than some of the other examples here with only about 40 guests. People were praising me throughout the incredible event and I routed all praise right to Claire. THANK YOU!
