  2. Add the rest of the ingredients to the shaker and dry-shake with no ice.

  3. Add ice to the shaker and shake again.

  4. Strain the drink into a chilled coupe glass.

  5. Garnish with a fresh rosemary sprig.

  6. To make Vanilla syrup : Add 250g white sugar, 250ml water and a vanilla pod to a saucepan.
