Tips

  • For a stronger lavender flavor, gently muddle a few fresh lavender buds with the syrup before mixing.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the maximum effervescence. Consider pre-chilling your glasses.
  • Make your own lavender syrup by steeping dried lavender in simple syrup for 30 minutes, then straining.
