Lavender Elderberry Lemonade

Lovely Lavender Lemonade with Honey and Elderberry

Cool, chilling, calming + hydrating and helpful to almost every organ system, this lemon-lavender combo does wonders for the mind and body. Preparing an easy lavender simple syrup with honey takes no time at all, and any leftover syrup can be stored in the fridge and added to smoothies, cocktails/mocktails, or even used on oatmeal or pancakes. The benefits of lavender are many, from its stress-taming and nervousness-easing to its ability to promote a healthy digestion and a good night's sleep.
