•6 lemons
•1 cup organic cane sugar
•6 cups cold water
•1/4 cup fresh or 1 TBSP dried lavender buds
•Ice Cubes
•Lavender Springs and Lime Slices for garnish (optional)
1.Juice the lemons to make 1 cup of juice. To extract the most juice, FIRMLY roll the lemons between your hand and the counter top before cutting in half and juicing. Place the lemon juice in a pitcher, and set aside.
2.In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the sugar with 3 cups of the water. Over medium-high heat, simmer and stir the water until the sugar is completely dissolved.
3.Stir in the lavender to the sugar water, cover, and remove from heat. Steep for 25-30 minutes.
