Sage and Grapefruit Martini -- In a cocktail shaker muddle 2-3 grapefruit slices and 6 sage leaves. Fill shaker with ice. Add a 1/4 cup vodka, 1/4 cup gin, and 3 tbsp. simple syrup. Shake for 30 seconds. Pour into 2 chilled Martini glasses. Add a splash or 2 of Prosecco over each cocktail. Garnish with sage leaves.
Sage Butter -- This is the EASIEST way to create a delicious and visually pleasing spread. Melt 1/2 cup of butter in jar; cut about 10 leaves of sage into small pieces then stir into melted butter, add in a couple teaspoons of lemon juice cover and put in the fridge to harden. A jar of fresh homemade Sage Butter will make a lovely gift to bring to a holiday party or get together. I made a 'sage themed' basket to bring to a holiday party last week. I included a tied bushel of freshly picked sage (which smelled amazing); a mason jar of sage butter, plus the ingredients for the sage grapefruit martini (gift basket pictured below)
