We have so many blackberries growing around the outside of our yard. Today, I made Blackberry Lemonade w/ Herbs. It was healthy and delicious. I started with this basic recipe and added the juice from 6 cups of cooked, strained blackberries to it.
LEMONADE WITH HERBS
Start by making a basic simple syrup:
Add 1/4 cup honey or sugar to 1 cup of water. Stir until dissolved. Add juice from 2 fresh lemons. Added some of grated lemon peel in too. Add 2 tbsp concentrated lemon juice concentrate.
Bring to a slow boil. Add a few springs of fresh rosemary, thyme, and lavender. Cool.
Once cool, strain out herbs. Add 4 to 6 cups of cold water or sparkling water for some fizz. Add ice. Try it with mint leaves. Try it with added berries such as blackberries, blueberries, mange, orange, etc.
Try adding the syrup to cold steeped tea.
