Ingredients
  

1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4-6 lemons)

1/2 cup pure honey or agave syrup

1 cup water

2 tablespoons culinary lavender buds

4 cups sparkling water (chilled)

Ice cubes

Lemon slices and lavender sprigs for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare Lavender Syrup: In a small saucepan, combine the water and honey (or agave syrup). Bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring until the honey dissolves completely.

    Infuse Lavender: Once the syrup is heated, remove from heat and add the lavender buds. Cover and let it steep for about 20-30 minutes to infuse the honey with lavender flavor.

      Strain the Syrup: After steeping, strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl or jar to remove the lavender buds.

        Mix Lemonade Base: In a large pitcher, combine the fresh lemon juice and the lavender syrup you just made. Stir well to mix.

          Combine with Sparkling Water: Just before serving, add the chilled sparkling water to the pitcher and stir gently to combine. Adjust sweetness if desired by adding more honey or syrup to taste.

            Serve: Fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the sparkling lavender lemonade over the ice, and garnish with lemon slices and sprigs of lavender.
