If we’re talking of spring picnics, than we’re talking of strawberries.
In my dreams, the perfect picnic is a little in between “Pretty Woman” and “Little Women”: strawberries & champagne in a rustic backyard with linen & lace candid napkins and the perfect wicker picnic basket!
Oh yes, that would be perfect…. And not so difficult… I could do it anytime…
I think I know what’s gonna happen next Sunday!
By now, I’ve included strawberries in my picnic basket as Lemonade: pink, intense, girly lemonade… with an aromatic touch. Rosemary. —Claudia | Gourmet Project

Taste and add honey if you want it sweeter. I believe the 3 tablespoons are enough to clearly feel strawberries taste and their soft sourness!

Strain the liquid to remove seeds.

Place the rosemary sprigs in the bottle and add the lemonade. Wait for the lemonade to chill and refrigerate for at least a couple of hours before serving.
