Ingredients

Scale

Lavender Syrup (Homemade Option):

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender

Quick Option:

  • 1/2 cup Torani Lavender Syrup or another store-bought lavender syrup
  • For the Mocktail:

    • 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (about 45 limes)
    • 1/2 cup lavender syrup (homemade or store-bought)
    • 3 cups sparkling water or club soda
    • 1 cup fresh mint leaves
    • Ice cubes

    Optional Garnishes:

    • Fresh mint sprigs
    • Lime slices or wedges
    • Edible flowers (like lavender blooms)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare the Lavender Syrup (Skip if Using Store-Bought)

    Combine water, sugar, and dried lavender in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Let the mixture simmer gently, then remove from heat and steep for 5 minutes. Strain the syrup through a fine mesh strainer into a jar, discarding the lavender. Let it cool completely.

    Quick Tip: Save time by using Torani Lavender Syrup or a similar pre-made option. It’s just as delicious and ready to use!

  2. Step 2: Assemble the Mocktail

    In a large pitcher, add the fresh mint leaves and muddle gently with a muddler or spoon to release their aroma. Stir in the lime juice and lavender syrup. Add ice to the pitcher, then pour in the sparkling water or club soda. Stir gently to preserve the fizz.

  3. Step 3: Garnish and Serve

    Pour the mocktail into glasses filled with ice. Garnish with a sprig of mint, a slice of lime, and edible flowers for an elegant touch.
