If you have ever been to my house for dinner, you might have experienced my famous Roasted Rosemary Potatoes with a little fabulous sprinkled on top. The sensual smell of Rosemary in home warms the soul and kind of makes me a little frisky (perhaps 2013’s newest aphrodisiac?).
I never thought to add Rosemary to a cocktail so I am thankful to our friends at SheKnows.com for this amazing cocktail recipe!
