Ingredients

Lavender Simple Syrup

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 2-3 tablespoons culinary grade lavender

Lavender Lemonade

  • 4 lemons, juiced
  • 1 shot gin or vodka, optional
  • Sparkling water
  • Ice Cubes
  • Lemon slices, to serve

Instructions

  1. To make the simple syrup, place sugar, water and lavender into a saucepan and place over medium heat. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Lower the heat and boil until slightly thickened and syrupy. Cool to room temperature, which allows the lavender to infuse into the syrup. Strain out the lavender and store in an airtight bottle. You can make this in advance and keep it in the fridge.
  2. To make the lavender lemonade, add the squeezed lemon juice to a tall glass. Add the gin or vodka (if using) plus lavender simple syrup to taste then top up with ice cubes and sparkling water. Garnish with lemon slice.
