Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Concord grape juice
  • 1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender buds
  • 1 cup club soda
  • 1 lime sliced
  • Ice cubes
  • Fresh lavender sprigs for garnish, optional

Method
 

  1. Infuse the Lavender:
  2. In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil.
  3. Remove the boiling water from heat and add the dried culinary lavender buds to a heatproof container or teapot.
  4. Pour the hot water over the lavender buds and let it steep for about 10-15 minutes, or until it reaches your desired level of lavender flavor. You can adjust the steeping time for stronger or milder lavender notes.
  5. Strain the Lavender Infusion:
  6. Strain the lavender-infused water through a fine-mesh sieve or a tea strainer into a clean container or pitcher.
  7. Allow the lavender infusion to cool to room temperature.
  8. Prepare the Grape Lavender Refresher:
  9. In a serving glass, fill it with ice cubes.
  10. Pour 1 cup of Concord grape juice over the ice.
  11. Add a few slices of lime to the glass for a citrusy twist.
  12. Add Lavender Infusion:
  13. Pour 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the lavender infusion (adjust to your taste preference) into the glass with the grape juice and lime slices.
  14. Top with Club Soda:
  15. Gently pour 1 cup of club soda into the glass to create a fizzy and refreshing effervescence.
  16. Stir and Garnish:
  17. Give the Grape Lavender Refresher a gentle stir to combine all the flavors.
  18. Optionally, garnish with a fresh lavender sprig for a touch of elegance and fragrance.
