Inspired by the sun-kissed Mediterranean, this Rosemary Lemonade is slightly tart, sweet and refreshing. This hydrating lemonade is made completely from scratch using homemade rosemary simple syrup and fresh-squeezed lemon juice. Once chilled, serve it over ice, garnished with a lemon slice and a sprig of fresh rosemary. Perfect for a hot day! 

To make a rosemary simple syrup, stir together the water and sugar in a saucepan. Add the rosemary sprigs and bring to a boil. Simmer for five minutes, then set aside to cool completely. Finally, strain, and you are done. A tip: Make more than you need and keep the remainder in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Once you have a bottle of this syrup in the refrigerator, you are just a few steps away from creating amazing mocktails and cocktails boasting intense, woodsy rosemary flavor.  

To make this version of Rosemary Lemonade, you will need the following ingredients:
