This Whiskey Sage Cocktail is a delicious drink to sip on in the cooler winter months. To make sage simple syrup, bring 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water and ½ cup roughly chopped sage leaves to boil over medium high heat, stirring frequently. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to completely cool. Strain into container, tightly cover and store in fridge for up to 2 weeks.
