Lavender Lemonade
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice I used 3 large lemons, sometimes it takes more lemons if they are smaller or less juicy
- 1 teaspoon lavender
- 6 cups water
Instructions
- Place water and sugar in a medium saucepan, add lavender and bring to a boil.
- Turn burner off and let "simple syrup" cool.
- Squeeze lemons and strain out pits.
- Pour syrup into a 1/2 gallon container straining out the lavender, add lemon juice and water, then stir.
- Serve over ice.
- If you are serving it in a drink dispenser for a party, you can add more fresh lavender on top as it will stay purple in color and look pretty and add lemon slices if desired.
