thyme lemonade
We’re firmly into mid-July and honestly, I’m ready for summer to be over. Well, let me rephrase that. I’m ready for this heat/humidity wave to be over. July would be my BFF if it were 55 degrees and partly cloudy the whole month. But alas, July in Ohio is about one billion percent humidity – which is nothing that a curly haired girl enjoys. No, siree.
That being said, I do try to make the best of the season, and that usually means doing anything in my power to keep myself cool and sweat free. My weapon of choice: lemonade! And not just any lemonade, but a lovely, fancy and herbaceous lemonade like my Thyme Lemonade. It’s light and lovely and based on my Classic Lemonade, which I love. Today, I’m sharing my Thyme Lemonade over on the blog, Oh The Lovely Things, so be sure to swing by and check it out.
If you are not familiar with the lovely Clemence and all of her DIY eye candy, you are in for a treat. I have been getting lost in her collections of beauty and DIY tips for weeks. I wish I were kidding, her blog is addictive. That is why I am thrilled to be guest posting for her today while she travels around the globe! Speaking of traveling, I’m only 9 days away from my trip to Birmingham and the lovely Food Photography Workshop! I just can’t wait to share that experience with you!
I am TOTALLY over summer! But I am sure this special lemonade would help ease the pain.
lol, I am so glad I’m not alone! I am always getting the stink eye from people when I grumble about it being summer.
Such a beautiful post! Amazing photographs… I particularly like the second-last one, where the floating thyme transforms into dappled colour, partially obscured by condensation. I’m heading over to Oh Lovely Things to see your full post now. Thanks for sharing this gorgeous recipe with us xx
Thanks so much, Laura!! I always like experimenting with different types of shots, so I’m glad you like the photos 🙂
These photos are beautiful! I’d love to know where the pitcher is from.
Thank you, Christine!! This pitcher is actually a tea maker from Teavana. There is a lid with built in strainer and I usually use it to make loose leaf tea. Here is the link if you are interested: http://www.teavana.com/tea-products/teapots-teapot-sets/glass-teapots/p/camellia-cylindre-glass-tea-maker
Thank you so much for stopping by!!
