Lavender Lemonade

Lavender Lemonade


1. In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups water to a boil and remove from heat.

2. If using hibiscus, add it now and steep for 5 minutes. Remove hibiscus.

3. Add lavender and sweetener, stir well. let steep for an hour. At first the liquid will be greenish, but after the hour has passed it should be slightly purple.

4. Strain liquid into an appropriately sized pitcher to remove all solids.

5. Add lemon juice; stir well. Color changing Kool-Aid has nothing on this—when you add the lemon juice the lavender water changes from dull purple to vivid pink!

6. Add the remaining 4 cups of water (or club soda) and some ice (or chill if you don't want to dilute).

7. Serve chilled with lemon garnish.
