Homemade tarragon is a refreshing drink with a delicate aroma of tarragon and a light lemon tartness. This invigorating elixir emerged in Russian cuisine due to a love for natural ingredients and the desire to create a drink that combines health benefits with pleasant taste. Honey adds gentle sweetness, while added berries provide a special accent of freshness. Homemade tarragon is perfect for a summer day: cooling, revitalizing, and natural. Its green color evokes grassy meadows, and its rich flavor awakens memories of nature. This drink can be served with ice or berries, creating unique variations. Easy to prepare, it becomes not only an alternative to store-bought sodas but also a true gastronomic delight.
