Ingredients
  • 2 organic lemons
  • 8 sprigs of fresh lemon thyme
  • 700 ml l water

  • Step 1 Brush your lemons, thinly slice them, and remove some seeds if there are too many. Insert these thin slices in a jug, preferably clear, and add the rinsed lemon thyme sprigs.
  • Step 2 Let it sit one hour at a cool temperature and serve. Once the jug is empty, add more water, and wait another hour before serving. You will keep this nice lemonade taste for the next 24 hours. After that, you can use the lemons and lemon thyme sprigs to add a nice flavor to a fish dish.

Good to know!

If you don’t have any lemon thyme in your garden or on your terrace, I would advise you to sow some. This type of thyme is not only frequently used in recipes, but it is also a lovely tiny plant that grows easily in a pot as well as in the ground. The blooming period goes from May to October and the sprigs are available all year round. Its taste enhances all sorts of dishes and is a great source of vitamins and minerals.
