Rosemary Lemonade

I love weddings, especially when it comes to family weddings.  My cousin Jake married an amazing gal today, who is coincidentally a Kappa.  Gotta love Dana even more thanks to that! :)  At the reception the caterers served an amazing rosemary lemonade.  That made this pregnant lady quite happy!
Here is an adapted rosemary lemonade recipe.  Perfect for a hot day or baby shower...

Rosemary Lemonade

2 c. sugar
2 c. water
4 large sprigs of rosemary
2 c. fresh lemon juice
4 c. water
Rosemary sprigs for garnish

Stir together sugar and two cups of water in saucepan to create simple syrup.  Add rosemary sprigs.  Stirring constantly, bring to a boil.  Remove from heat and let cool.  Strain syrup to remove any grit or rosemary parts.  Mix together syrup, lemon juice and four cups water.  Add fresh rosemary sprigs and chill for a few hours.  Serve with ice.

And whats a wedding without a picture of Jake's dad, Uncle Ricky, singing with the Michael Benson Band!?  It was awesome!
