2. It freezes beautifully
Not going to use it all right away? No problem. Freeze rosemary sprigs in olive oil using an ice cube tray. You’ll have instant flavor boosters ready to drop into a pan whenever you need them.

Homemade focaccia with rosemary and sea salt? Yes, please. Or mix it into your biscuit dough or savory scones for something unexpected and delicious.

Make a rosemary simple syrup for cocktails or mocktails. Infuse it into lemonade for a refreshing twist. Even steep it in hot water for a soothing herbal tea.

5. It makes your home smell amazing
Toss a few sprigs into a simmer pot with lemon and cloves for a natural air freshener. Or bundle dried rosemary into a sachet for drawers or closets.
