• Wooden spoon or muddler
• Measuring cups and spoons
• Lemon juicer
• Cocktail glasses for serving
• Ice cube trays

Ingredients

• 4 cups fresh pineapple juice
• 2 cups fresh lemon juice about 8-10 lemons
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup lavender simple syrup
• 1/4 cup dried culinary lavender buds
• Fresh pineapple wedges for garnish
• Lemon slices for garnish
• Fresh lavender sprigs for garnish
• Ice cubes

Instructions

• Make lavender simple syrup: Mix 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water, and dried lavender in a pot. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes. Strain and cool.
• Juice the lemons and strain out pulp and seeds.
• Pour pineapple juice, lemon juice, water, and cooled lavender syrup into the pitcher. Stir well.

Notes

Store leftover mocktail in the fridge for up to 3 days. The flavors blend better after 24 hours.

For a stronger lavender taste, add more lavender syrup. Start with small amounts to avoid an overpowering flavor.

To make ahead, mix all ingredients except garnishes and store in an airtight container.

Use fresh pineapple juice for the best taste. Canned juice works too, but may be sweeter.

Tasting Notes

This pineapple lavender lemonade mocktail offers a bright, sunny flavor profile with layers of citrus and floral notes.

The first sip brings forward the sweet-tart combination of fresh pineapple and lemon juice. The natural sugars from the pineapple balance the sharp citrus perfectly.

Lavender adds a gentle floral touch that lingers on the palate. Its subtle presence keeps the drink from being too fruity while adding sophistication.

Key flavor notes:

• Fresh pineapple: Sweet and tropical
• Lemon: Bright and zesty
• Lavender: Light and floral
• Club soda: Crisp bubbles

The carbonation from club soda creates a refreshing fizz that lifts the flavors and makes each sip extra refreshing. The drink finishes clean with no artificial aftertaste.

This mocktail tastes best when served very cold with ice. The flavors become more rounded as the drink sits, letting the lavender notes develop fully.

Serving temperature: 35-40°F (2-4°C)

Substitute

Different ingredients can replace items in this pineapple lavender lemonade recipe when needed. Here are some common swaps that work well:

Fresh pineapple juice can be replaced with canned pineapple juice or pineapple nectar. Use a 1:1 ratio when making this swap.

No lavender syrup? Mix 1/4 cup honey with 2-3 drops of food-grade lavender essential oil. Regular simple syrup also works as a backup option.

Fresh lemon alternatives:

• Bottled lemon juice (use 2 tablespoons)
• Lime juice
• Meyer lemon juice

For a sweeter drink, replace club soda with lemon-lime soda or ginger ale. Sparkling water makes a sugar-free option.

Want to skip the mint garnish? Try:

• Fresh basil leaves
• Edible flowers
• Lemon wheels
• Pineapple chunks

The purple color comes from the lavender. For a similar look without lavender, add 2-3 drops of natural purple food coloring.
