rosemary rhubarb lemon syrup

i was trying to think of fun gifts for my little sister's 19th birthday last week and got inspired by the lemon rosemary rhubarb spritzers kate made last week using this recipe. i went for it.

the sour lemon helped tone down the sweetness of all the sugar and the savory rosemary complimented the rhubarb, leaving us with a very interesting and intensely flavoured drink. we ended up having it with vodka & soda (it was a birthday party, after all) but it as great sans alcohol as well. i would love to try it with prosecco or some other sparkling wine next time!

yum. i love finding new ways to use my favourite produce (i'm talking to you, rhubarb. next up: sweet & sour rhubarb pickles).
