Blood & Marriage is a delicious cocktail that is prepared in three parts. You will need to make Rosemary Simple Syrup and your own Rosemary Foam before mixing it all together. But don't let this process intimidate you. You will be pleasantly surprised with a subtle but unexpected hint of Rosemary in your cocktail. Follow the recipe strictly, and you will be rewarded with an enjoyable, light drink that perfectly goes with your BBQ meats. To make this process a little more simple, use a shot glass that will measure precisely 1.5 ounces of liquid.
