Ingredients

Lavender-Infused Simple Syrup

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons dried culinary lavender

Lavender Lemonade Fizz

  • 1 cup lavender-infused simple syrup
  • 1 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cups sparkling water
  • Fresh lavender sprigs for garnish
  • Lemon slices for garnish
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Prepare the lavender syrup: Combine 1 cup water, 1 cup sugar, and 2 tablespoons dried culinary lavender in a saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. Once dissolved, remove from heat and let the mixture steep for 15 minutes. Strain the syrup to remove the lavender buds and allow it to cool to room temperature.
  2. Mix lemonade base: In a pitcher, combine the cooled lavender-infused simple syrup with 1 cup of fresh lemon juice. Stir well to blend the flavors evenly.
  3. Prepare glasses: Fill each glass with ice cubes to chill the drink properly.
  4. Assemble the drink: Pour the lavender lemonade mixture over the ice in each glass. Top off with sparkling water, about 2 cups divided among servings, and gently stir to combine all ingredients without losing the fizz.
  5. Garnish and serve: Add fresh lavender sprigs and lemon slices to each glass for an elegant look and enhanced fragrance. Serve chilled and enjoy the refreshing floral notes of the Lavender Lemonade Fizz.

Notes

  • Use dried culinary lavender specifically to ensure a food-safe and pleasant flavor.
  • If dried lavender is unavailable, you can substitute with a small amount of fresh lavender buds, but reduce quantity to avoid bitterness.
  • Adjust sweetness by altering the amount of simple syrup to taste.
  • For a stronger floral flavor, increase steeping time up to 20 minutes but avoid over-steeping to prevent bitterness.
  • Sparkling water can be replaced with club soda or tonic water for a slightly different flavor profile.
  • The syrup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
