Lemon-Rosemary Tea

"Haven't made this yet, but my rosemary plant has gone berzerk since we redid the herb garden, so I'm saving recipes which will come in handy soon. I'm not big on nor familiar with iced tea and maybe the following is a common practice, but the idea of adding the carbonated drink just before serving sounds WAY refreshing! Chill time (3 hours) is included in time estimate. Recipe courtesy BH&G."

  1. Made for 1. Light and refreshing. You might try some lemon zest in it for a little extra zing. Made for the Comfort Cafe, thanks Sandi!
