Ingredients
Lavender Syrup
- 3 tablespoons dried culinary lavender
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
- zest of one lemon
Lemonade
- 1 cup lavender syrup
- 1 cup freshly-squeezed lemon juice, strained of pulp (8 small lemons or 4 large lemons)
- 2 cups brewed butterfly pea flower tea, cooled
- 1 -2 cup ice
- lavender, sprigs (for garnish)
Directions
- For the lavender syrup: Combine dried lavender, sugar and water in a small pot and bring to a boil, stirring until sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in lemon zest. Let lavender steep for 1 hour before straining syrup through a sieve lined with cheesecloth. Allow to cool completely and store in refrigerator until ready to use.
- For the lemonade: In a large pitcher, combine lavender syrup, lemon juice and cooled butterfly pea flower tea. As you stir, you’ll notice the blue tea turns purple when mixed with lemon juice. When ready to serve, add 1-2 cups of ice. Garnish individual glasses with lavender sprigs.
