Instructions
Squeeze the lemons to make fresh lemon juice. If you prefer your lemonade pulp-less, strain the lemon juice.

Add the apple flavored vodka and Limoncello and mix well. Stir in half of the apple slices.
Pour into serving glasses over ice and garnish with the remaining apple slices. Add a fresh sprig of rosemary if desired.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes
If you want to bring the apple flavor up even more, you can substitute 2 cups of apple cider for 2 cups tonic water.
