Simple Cocktail: Rosemary Lemonade Sparkler
Pulling this brunch wedding inspiration together was simple and only took a quick trip to Trader Joe’s and a bit of time in the kitchen. We’re going to spend the next few days breaking down how we created our simple, Spring brunch spread. Where better to start than this fresh, light cocktail?
