Today a very special non alcohol beverage: lavender lemonade. This lemonade is refreshing and has a summer smell the lavender. This lemonade can also be made with violets or roses, but the lavender is fully blooming right now in the picking garden that I could not resist to make a mocktail with it.
- If you like bubbles in your lemonade then add sparkling water instead of plain water.
- If you don’t have lavender flowers or you want to vary in lemonade you can also use leaves of violet or roses.
- Use unsprayed (lavender) flowers. Ordinary plants from the garden center can contain toxins. Make sure you only harvest flowers if you’re sure they are not sprayed.
- This lemonade can be made one day before the party.
- You can store this lemonade for up to 2 days in the refrigerator.
