Rosemary Bourbon Lemonade

Bourbon is my spirit of choice the majority of the time but in the summer, I usually shift to tequila for something a little lighter. Something about bourbon screams cool air and sweaters to me so I tend to skip it in the warmer months. That being said, I was determined to make a summer cocktail with bourbon so I can still enjoy my favorite liquor and I think I found it! The combination of lemonade and rosemary pairs perfectly with the bourbon and the egg white makes it so frothy. You could also skip the egg white and serve this over ice for the extra warm days. Regardless, it’s the perfect adult lemonade!
