Light Lavender Mint Lemonade ~ Sumptuous Spoonfuls #skinny #refreshing #lemonade #recipe

Light Lavender Mint Lemonade

  • Prep Time: 15 minutes
  • Cook Time: 2 hours
  • Total Time: 2 hours 15 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • Juice of 4 lemons
  • 24 cups water (use part sparkling water if you want bubbles)
  • 24 Tablespoons honey
  • Several sprigs of lavender leaves
  • Several sprigs of mint leaves
  • Stevia (or your preferred sweetener), to taste

Instructions

  1. Put the lemon juice in a pitcher and add 1 – 2 cups water and the honey. Stir until the honey is fully incorporated.
  2. Submerge the lavender and mint leaves in the liquid, then put several of the rinds from the juiced lemons in the water as well. Set in the fridge to chill and infuse the herbs into the liquid. Leave it for at least 2 hours, but I do recommend soaking overnight and up to 3 days.
  3. Before serving, add more water and sweetener, to taste. You may want to strain it using a fine mesh strainer if you don’t want pulp in your lemonade. Serve over ice, garnished with edible flowers and mint .

Notes

“Cook time” is really “chill time” for this recipe. πŸ™‚
