Rosemary Lemon Tea
Lemon is one of the easiest additions to rosemary tea because its bright acidity contrasts nicely with rosemary’s woody character.
Prepare the basic tea and strain it. Then add 1–2 teaspoons of fresh lemon juice and, if desired, a thin lemon slice.
For a slightly sweeter version, add a small amount of honey.
Rosemary Honey Tea
If plain rosemary tea tastes too
bitter for you, honey can round out the edges without completely masking the herb.
Prepare and strain the tea, allow it to cool slightly, and stir in about a teaspoon of honey.
Start with less than you think you’ll need. You can always add more.
Rosemary Ginger Tea
For a warmer, spicier drink, add 2–3 thin slices of fresh ginger to the rosemary while it steeps.
Strain both ingredients before serving.
Fresh lemon also works particularly well with this combination.
Rosemary Mint Tea
Rosemary and mint create a refreshing contrast.
