Ingredients
  

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

1 cup granulated sugar

5 cups water

2 tablespoons dried culinary lavender buds

1 cup cold water (for dilution)

Fresh lemon slices, for garnish

Lavender sprigs, for garnish

Ice cubes

Instructions
 

In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and the granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar has completely dissolved.

    Once the sugar syrup is ready, remove it from heat and stir in the dried lavender buds. Cover the saucepan and let it steep for about 15-20 minutes.

      Strain the lavender sugar syrup through a fine mesh sieve into a heatproof pitcher, discarding the lavender buds.

        Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice to the pitcher, mixing well with the lavender syrup.

          Pour in 4 cups of cold water to the mixture, stirring until everything is well combined. Adjust the water to your taste preference, depending on how strong you want the flavor.

            Chill the iced lavender lemonade in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

              To serve, fill a glass with ice cubes, pour the chilled lemonade over the ice, and garnish with lemon slices and lavender sprigs for an elegant touch.
