Calories 426kcal
Ingredients
- ¼ cup dried lavender blossoms
- ½ tsp dried thyme
- ⅓ - ½ cup light colored honey
- 1 cup lemon juice (If you use organic lemons don't waste the rind - use it to make lemon pepper seasoning)
- 5 cups filtered water (divided - can use 1 cup of filtered water and 4 cups sparkling water if desired)
Instructions
- Place the lavender blossoms, thyme and 1 cup of water in a small pot. Cover and bring water to a boil, then remove the pot from heat and set it aside to steep for one hour. While the lavender water is steeping, squeeze the lemon juice and set it aside. When the lavender thyme water is ready, strain out the herbs and pour it into a glass jar. Add in the honey and lemon juice and stir until well-combined, then add in the remaining 4 cups of water. Adjust the lemonade to taste if needed (more honey or more lemon depending on your preference), then serve and enjoy.
