Tarragon Lemonade Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the sugar with 1 cup water and 6 sprigs tarragon in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
• In a large pitcher, combine lemon juice, tarragon-sugar syrup, and 3 cups of cold water. Fill pitcher with ice until ready to serve.
• To serve, fill glasses with ice. Pour a shot of gin over the ice, if using. Fill with lemonade and garnish with a tarragon sprig.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups of water with the sugar and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
• Simmer over moderately high heat until reduced to 3 1/4 cups, about 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and add 5 of the tarragon sprigs.
• Let stand, stirring often, until cooled to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Discard the tarragon sprigs.
• In a large glass pitcher, combine the remaining 6 cups of water with the tarragon syrup and fresh lemon juice.
• Add a pinch of salt, stirring until it dissolves.
• Serve the tarragon lemonade over ice, garnished with the lemon slices and the remaining 12 tarragon sprigs.
