1
Make Juniper Syrup
In a saucepan, combine juniper berries, water, and sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Add fresh rosemary sprigs and reduce heat to a simmer. Let it simmer for about 20 minutes.
2
Strain the Syrup
Remove from heat and let it cool. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove the juniper berries and rosemary. Store the syrup in a clean bottle in the refrigerator.

3
Mix the Drink
In a large pitcher, combine the prepared juniper syrup, tonic water, and fresh lemon juice. Stir well.
4
Serve
Serve over ice in glasses. Garnish with lemon slices and fresh rosemary sprigs as desired.
