For the rosemary jelly, rinse the rosemary stems with cold water and shake dry. Heat white wine, apple juice and 250 ml water with the preserving sugar in a pot. Add the rosemary stems and boil for 5 minutes until bubbling.
Make the jelly test. To do this, drip some of the jelly onto a cold plate. If it becomes firm, the jelly is ready. If not, let the mixture cook a little longer.
Lift out the rosemary stems and needles with a perforated scoop.
Pour the rosemary jelly into prepared twist-off jars. Drizzle a little alcohol over the top, light and seal immediately. Place on a tea towel with the lid down and let cool.
