This refreshing tangerine rosemary mocktail would be a perfect addition to a spring brunch! I think if you put a little citrus in your drink, it’s suitable for morning, noon or night! 😉

Happy Monday! Hope that you all had a lovely Easter weekend! We enjoyed our Easter church service, spending time with family, eating delicious food and of course lots of Cadbury mini eggs! (Caitlin got to spend her Easter down in NYC, where she’ll be all week – lucky girl!)

I’ve been on a citrus kick lately. I think I’m trying to combat all this freezing cold weather we’re still having (ummm, it snowed here yesterday…on Easter!). By infusing my life with bright and cheerful food & drinks, I can pretend that I’m enjoying in warmer places! I’ve made a couple citrus mocktails recently that were really yummy and I got to enjoy kumquat rolls that my aunt made (like cinnamon rolls, but with kumquats!), yesterday at our Easter dinner – sooo good!

With just a few simple ingredients, you can quickly mix up this tangerine rosemary mocktail. It does have a rosemary simple syrup in it. Simple syrups are very easy to make. And you can make them ahead, so they’re ready to add to drinks whenever you’re ready to mix them up!
