So much goodness all in one glass.
Ingredients
8 lemons, halved
6 cup water
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon dried lavender buds
3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
Sparkling water (optional)
Instructions
If desired, preheat grill. Place lemon halves, cut sides down, on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium heat. Grill for 5 minutes or until cut sides are charred. Remove and cool.
Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan combine 1 cup water, sugar, lavender, and rosemary. Bring to boiling, stirring to dissolve sugar. Remove from heat. Let stand until cool. Pour through a sieve; discard solids.
Juice the lemon halves. In a pitcher combine the lemon juice, syrup, and remaining water. Chill until needed. Serve over ice topped off with sparkling water and with additional rosemary and lavender, if desired.
