For the syrup
250g sugar
300ml water
3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
For the soda
juice of 6 lemons
ice cubes
soda water
gin

METHOD:
Start by making the lemon and rosemary syrup. Place the sugar, water and rosemary in a saucepan over a medium heat and gently bring to the boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved.

Stir and serve.
