Rosemary Lemonade

Makes ten servings

Since the news cycle right now is not exactly…slow, I won’t bore you with a long text.

This lemonade was one of my favorite things to drink this summer. You can probably make this lemonade with other herbs; I would like to try it with thyme sometime.

2 sprigs fresh rosemary*

10 cups water

½ cup sugar

Zest of one lemon

Juice of three lemons

Ice

1. Place the rosemary in 2 cups of water in a shallow pan and bring to a boil.
2. Add the sugar and stir in until dissolved. Turn off the heat and remove the rosemary.
3. Pour the syrup over ice in a large pitcher. Add the zest and lemon juice and stir well.
4. Add the rest of the water to the pitcher. Let sit for one hour before serving.

*Different herbs will probably require different amounts – it should add up to a tablespoon or two for each time.
