- 5 sprigs Fresh thyme sprigs
- 1 cup Vodka
- 2 cups Ice cubes

Directions
Step 1
Juice the 4 lemons to yield approximately 1 cup of fresh lemon juice. Strain out any seeds and pulp, if desired, and set aside.

In a large pitcher, combine the fresh lemon juice, the thyme syrup, 2 cups of water, and vodka. Stir well to mix.

Fill glasses with ice cubes, then pour the vodka thyme lemonade over the ice.
