| 250 ml | water |
| 1 | lemon |
| 250 g | sugar |
| 4 tsp | dried lavender |
| 4 | ice cubes |
| 1 | lime |
| mint (for garnish) | |
| 100 ml | tonic water |
| 100 cup | soda water |
Juice lemons. Add to a pot along with the water and bring to a boil.
As soon as the water boils, add the sugar and stir till dissolved. Reduce heat to low and let simmer for 2 min.
Add lavender and remove pot from heat. Let the lavender syrup steep for 10-15 min. Pass the syrup through a sieve (leaving the lavender in will render it bitter) Let cool for at least 2 hrs.
For the lemonade, divide add lime quarters to a glass, pressing them slightly. Add a sprig of mint and ice cubes. Add approx 1cm (1/3 in) of syrup to the bottle of the glass and top up with half tonic water, half soda water. Adjust syrup to your own liking.
