Lavender Lemonade

Again this rogue bag of dried lavender in my baking cupboard is inspiring me. This lavender lemonade recipe is a refreshing twist on a classic for some interesting flavor notes and relaxation. I did not choose to add any special colors or fresh lavender flowers so no pretty purple color, but this drink has AMAZING flavor.

Ingredients

Simple Lavender Syrup

• 1 tsp dried lavender buds
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 cups boiling water to infuse

Lemonade

• 1 1/8 cup lemon juice (I only had 1 lemon so I used bottled lemon juice and 1 lemon)
• 3 cups cold water (you can add more if you like it more watered down or just serve over ice)

Directions

1. Assemble the simple lavender syrup and stir until sugar is dissolved.
2. Let infuse for at least 30 minutes.
3. Mix it all together and then your lavender lemonade enjoy over ice!
