In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, granulated sugar, and 2 rosemary sprigs.
Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has completely dissolved to create rosemary-infused syrup. This should take around 5 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and set it aside to allow the rosemary to steep for an additional 5 minutes.
Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl or container to remove the rosemary sprigs. Let the syrup cool completely.
In a pitcher, combine the rosemary-infused syrup, fresh lime juice, and the remaining 1 cup of water. Stir well.
Fill two glasses with ice cubes and pour the rosemary limeade evenly into each glass.
Optionally, garnish each glass with a lime slice and a small rosemary sprig for a decorative touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing flavors.
