What to do
Prepare shrub:
- Add the lemon juice, maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, ginger, beet powder, and 1 sprig of rosemary to a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a light boil, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely in the refrigerator. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a glass-measuring cup and set aside until ready to use.
Prepare cocktail:
- Fill a tumbler glass halfway with ice cubes. Using a cocktail shaker, combine the gin and shrub and shake well. Pour over ice and top with seltzer. Stir and serve, and garnish with a fresh rosemary sprig.
