    Jump to Recipe Pin

    This Lavender Lemonade is sweet and tart with a wonderful floral note. Lavender simple syrup transcends lemonade into the perfect summer drink!

    Lavender elevates homemade lemonade to another level! It makes lemonade feel fancy like you got it at a resort while overlooking the ocean.

    Use this lavender lemonade recipe in a cocktail or drink as is. Either way, it is delicious.

    Some other lavender recipes I've made are my Oat Milk Lavender Matcha Latte, Iced Lavender Dirty Chai Latte, and my Lavender Soy Milk Latte. I've even made Lavender Kombucha.

    If you like spicy foods, try my Chipotle Mint Lemonade. It is sweet, smoky, and minty.

    🧾 Ingredients

    Ingredients on a cutting board with labels.
    • Lavender flowers: Make sure to get culinary-grade lavender. I found some in the bulk section of my local Sprouts.
    • Sugar: I haven't tried this with anything other than white sugar, so I don't know if it would work with brown sugar.
    • Water
    Ingredients on a cutting board with labels.
    • Lemon juice: For the best lemonade, freshly squeezed lemons are best instead of store-bought lemon juice.
    • Lavender simple syrup: Adds a sweet floral note.
    • Water: To dilute the lemon juice.

    This is an overview of the ingredients. To see the full list of ingredients with measurements and instructions, see the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

    💭 Tips

    • Use fresh lemons; not store-bought lemon juice or concentrated lemon juice.
    • Buy more lemons than you think you'll need. For this recipe, you'll need about 2 ½ to 3 lemons.
    • To get the most juice out of lemons, roll them back and forth on your cutting board applying pressure. You can also try heating them in the microwave for 10 seconds.
    • Start with less lavender simple syrup to see how you like it.
    • Let the lemonade sit in the fridge before serving so the flavors can meld together.
    • Freeze some of the Lavender Lemonade in ice cube trays so that your lemonade isn't diluted. The lemonade won't freeze as hard as plain water because of the sugar, but it'll freeze hard enough to use as ice cubes.
