Rosemary Lemonade
Bitters are a fun and easy ingredient to add to your non-alcoholic drinks. They bring a nice little bite to whatever you’re drinking. Try some in sparkling water or with lemonade.
Rosemary Lemonade:
- 1 1/2 Cup Fresh Lemon Juice (Apprx 12-16 Lemons)
- 1 Cup Rosemary Syrup*
- 4 Cups Water
-
1 - 2 tsp Hella Citrus Bitters, to taste (12-24 Dashes)
- Mix all ingredients together in a pitcher or bottle and allow some time for chilling.
- Serve over ice in a tall glass, throw a fresh sprig of rosemary in and enjoy.
*Rosemary syrup: add two cups of water and two cups of sugar to a saucepan with 4 or 5 sprigs of fresh rosemary. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring to make sure all sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool, leaving the sprig in the liquid. This makes more than one cup of syrup and you can adjust the sweetness of the lemonade to your taste and use the leftover syrup for gin cocktails in the future. We're thinking rosemary gimlets with a few dashes of Hella Citrus Bitters.
