Necessities

Large jug, long spoon

To make the lemonade

1. Add 1 cup of sparkling water, the lemon juice, lemon essential oil, honey and rosemary to the jug. Stir with a long spoon, until everything is well mixed. Press lightly on the rosemary sprigs while stirring, so that their flavour is released.
2. Add the rest of the sparkling water to the jug and stir well.
3. The lemonade can either be used directly or kept in the fridge. To serve, pour the lemonade over the ice blocks and slices of lemon in the serving glasses. Add a sprig of fresh rosemary to each glass.

Tip: depending on your personal taste, you can use either more or less honey in this recipe.
