Serving Size

Equipment

large pitcher (at least 2 quarts)
Small saucepan
Citrus juicer or reamer

Fine mesh strainer or sieve
Mixing spoon
Measuring cups and spoons

Muddler (optional, for pressing the berries)
Serving glasses
Ice cube tray

Small bowl for garnishes

Ingredients

1 cup fresh blueberries
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice about 3-4 lemons

1/3 cup honey or sugar adjust to taste
2 cups cold water
1 cup ice cubes

2 teaspoons dried culinary lavender or 1 tablespoon fresh lavender
Extra blueberries and lemon slices for garnish
Fresh lavender sprigs for garnish (optional)

Instructions

In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup water, honey (or sugar), and lavender.
Heat over medium heat until the mixture simmers, then remove from heat and let steep for 10 minutes.
Strain out the lavender flowers and let the syrup cool.

Add the blueberries to a large pitcher and gently mash with a muddler.
Pour in the lemon juice, cooled lavender syrup, and remaining water.
Stir well to mix all ingredients.

Add ice cubes to the pitcher or directly to serving glasses.
Garnish with extra blueberries, lemon slices, and a sprig of lavender if desired.

Notes

I prefer using fresh-squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor. If you use bottled lemon juice, the drink may taste a bit different.

For a sparkling twist, I sometimes swap half of the water with club soda or sparkling water just before serving.

This adds a refreshing fizz. The lavender syrup can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to a week.

If you want the mocktail less sweet, reduce the amount of honey or sugar. To make a larger batch, double or triple the ingredient amounts and use a bigger pitcher.

Always strain the syrup well so the drink stays smooth.

Tasting Notes

When I take a sip of this Lavender Blueberry Lemonade Mocktail, I notice the light floral scent right away.

The lavender is gentle and does not overpower the other flavors.

The blueberry brings a mild sweetness and a pleasant tartness. It blends well with the lemon, which gives the drink a refreshing sour taste.

Flavor Highlights:

Lavender: Subtle, calming, floral
Blueberry: Sweet, slightly tangy

Lemon: Bright, crisp acidity

The color is a soft purple, and I find it visually appealing.

The combination of floral and fruit notes makes each sip interesting.

Texture-wise, the drink is smooth, with no pulp or grit. If I add ice, it feels even more refreshing on a hot day.

This mocktail is not too sweet or too sour.

The balance of flavors means I can enjoy more than one glass without feeling overwhelmed.

Substitute

If I don’t have fresh lavender, I just use dried lavender buds instead. Gotta make sure they’re food-grade, though.

I only need about half as much dried as I would fresh, which is kind of nice.

Instead of blueberries, I sometimes go for blackberries or raspberries. Both give a similar flavor, and honestly, the color pops just as much.

When I’m out of lemons, I’ll swap in limes for a slightly different taste. The result is still tangy and fresh—maybe even a little brighter?

If I want a sugar-free mocktail, I’ll grab honey or agave syrup instead of regular sugar. Both work pretty well and mix in easily, so you don’t have to fuss over it.

For sparkling lemonade, I just replace still water with club soda or sparkling water. It’s a small change but makes the drink feel way fancier.
