For The Syrup
- 1 Cup Sugar
- 1 Cup Water
- 2 tablespoon Lavender Flowers
For the Lemonade
- 1 ¼ Cups Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice About 8 Lemons
- 6 Cups Cold Water
Make the Simple Syrup
In a 1-quart saucepan, combine sugar, water, and lavender flowers. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a boil and the sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat.
1 Cup Sugar, 1 Cup Water, 2 tablespoon Lavender Flowers
Place a lid on the pot and allow the mixture to steep for 15 minutes. Then, pour the syrup through a fine mesh strainer to remove the flowers. Use the back of a spoon to press the flowers to extract as much syrup as possible, then discard the flowers.
Make the Lavender Lemonade
Into a 10-12 cup pitcher, combine the lavender syrup and lemon juice. Add six cups of cold water and mix well.
1 ¼ Cups Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice, 6 Cups Cold Water
Place in the refrigerator to chill for a couple of hours or serve immediately over ice. I like to garnish with plenty of lemon slices.
