Strawberry Lavender Lemonade!
Having dined at an exclusive health spa restaurant (Thank You Robert Redfern,
from England!) and having this most delicious beverage - - - I have
been making it ever since!
1 Cup of Sugar [I use raw brown sugar, but you can also use stevia]
1 Tablespoon grated lemon rind [you can also use about 15 drops of Lemon
Essential Oil]
1/2 cup boiling water
1 1/2 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice [from about six large lemons, I have a
tree]
3/4 cup fresh pureed strawberries
10 drops of Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia)
6 Cups cold water
Ice cubes
In a jar with tight-fitting lid, combine sugar, rind, and boiling water; shake
until sugar dissolves. Add lemon juice; shake well. Add fresh pureed
strawberries and 10 drops of Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia).
Chill. Before serving, add water and ice cubes. Makes 2 quarts.
