No Sugar Lavender Water

SO Refreshing!

This Sparkling Lavender Water is so refreshing on a hot summer day.  The same type of day when the blossoms are at peak perfection to create this lavender libation!

We always pack this special drink to take to the beach when it is in season along with our frozen Lavender Lemon Poppyseed Cake!

West Michigan Great Lakes Beach + Sparkling Lavender Water + Lavender Lemon Poppyseed Cake + Majestic Summer Sunset = Heaven.

Type of Lavender

This is definitely a “seasonal” mocktail as we prefer using the fresh blossoms during the process.  The recipe is for dried buds since that is what is available most of the year.

Make sure you are using culinary lavender:  English Lavender.  Hybrids (aka Lavandin) are camphorous and will have a bitter outcome.
