How to Make Rosemary Lemonade

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup fresh rosemary sprigs.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and gently simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the rosemary to infuse the syrup.
  3. Remove from heat and let the rosemary syrup steep for 10-15 minutes to deepen the flavor.
  4. Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a heatproof bowl, pressing gently on the rosemary to extract as much syrup as possible. Discard the rosemary.
  5. Let the rosemary syrup cool completely.
  6. In a large pitcher, combine 1 (6-ounce) can frozen lemonade concentrate with 3 (12-ounce) cans of cold water. Stir well to combine.
  7. Add the cooled rosemary syrup to the lemonade mixture. Stir gently to incorporate.
  8. Serve immediately over ice. Garnish each glass with a fresh rosemary sprig for an elegant touch. Makes approximately 2 quarts.
