Rosemary Limeade Recipe

Today, I’m sharing the recipe for a delicious and refreshing Rosemary Limeade which is great for sharing amongst a few friends at a concert picnic along with some homemade Italian sub sandwiches and homemade parmesan potato chips! 

Rosemary Limeade // Salty CanaryHere in Los Angeles, we have several outdoor summer music and movie venues where you can BYO food and drinks. All of these places offer ready-to-eat food with either restaurants, food trucks, or prepared box dinners which are great when you’re running late and don’t have time to make something, but part of the fun of going to these venues is making the effort and packing a perfect summer picnic dinner to bring to the concert!

Going to an outdoor music concert is one of our favorite things to do during the summer in Los Angeles! But it does get HOT and it’s often a long walk from the car to your seats at most of these venues (sometimes even uphill)! So bringing along a refreshing beverage is a must and it doesn’t get much better than this Rosemary Limeade! It does take a bit of effort since you have to juice several limes, but along with the help of a lime squeezer, I promise it is worth it!
