The flavor of thyme in this lemonade lends an unexpected grown-up flair to a summer favorite.

Ingredients

Directions

  • In a medium saucepan, bring sugar, thyme, and 1 cup water to a boil; stir until sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes. Stir in lemon juice, gin (if using), and 6 cups cold water; strain into a large pitcher. Refrigerate until cold, at least 1 hour (and up to 1 week). Serve over ice, garnished with thyme sprigs, if desired.

Was very excited to try this drink...I used agave instead of sugar which sweetened it nicely. However, the consensus at the gathering was that thyme pairs more suitably with stuffing or other savoury delights.
