Mint Lemonade With Rosemary

• FOR THE SIMPLE SYRUP:
• 1/2 cups Water
• 1/2 cups Regular Sugar
• 2 sprigs Rosemary
• FOR THE LEMONADE:
• 1-1/2 cup Lemon Juice, Freshly Squeezed (about 4 Lemons)
• 3-1/2 cups Water
• Ice Cubes, As Needed
• 4 Tablespoons Fresh Mint Leaves, Chopped
• 4 sprigs Fresh Rosemary, To Serve

1. For the syrup:
2. Pour water and sugar into a small pot and bring it to a simmer. Tear 1 to 2 springs of rosemary and add to the syrup. Simmer for a 1 or 2 minutes, stirring. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. For the lemonade:
4. Pour lemon juice into a jug and add water. Chop mint thinly and add. Stir.
5. Chop the mint thinly and add to the mix. Stir.
6. In a glass, put lots of ice cubes in and add about 1 cup mint lemonade. Add syrup, around 2 to 3 teaspoons depending how sweet you like it. Add a rosemary sprig.
7. Tip: It's best to serve the lemonade straight after making it to get the most out of the fresh herbs. However, if you want to make it ahead for the next day, I suggest you add the mint at the last moment.
