Rosemary-Infused Watermelon Lemonade

2 cups water

¾ cup white sugar

1 sprig rosemary, leaves stripped and chopped

2 cups lemon juice

12 cups cubed seeded watermelon

8 cups ice cubes

Bring the water and sugar to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat. Stir in the rosemary, and set aside to steep for 1 hour.

Place half of the lemon juice, and half of the watermelon into a blender. Strain the rosemary syrup through a mesh strainer into the blender. Cover, and puree until smooth. Strain into a pitcher, then puree the remaining lemon juice and watermelon. Stir the lemonade before serving over ice.
