Simple and refreshing, Lavender Lemonade is the perfect quencher on a hot summer day. Start with your simple syrup by stirring sugar, water and lavender together over medium heat until sugar is dissolved and mixture is clear. Once your syrup is cooling, juice your lemons and strain to remove seeds. Combine everything together once your syrup is close to room temp and serve over ice with lemon and lavender as garnish. As pretty as it is tasty!
Make the lavender simple syrup. Combine the sugar, water, and lavender flowers in a small sauce pot over medium high heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture is clear. Remove from heat; steep the lavender flowers in the simple syrup for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours. Strain the lavender flowers from the simple syrup using a small metal sieve or a piece of cheesecloth.
Combine the lavender simple syrup, lemon juice, and water in a pitcher. Add ice, or chill for 4 hours. Serve cold, garnished with fresh lavender flowers if desired.
