This is a spicy twist on our lavender lemonade. The ingredients and process are nearly identical, with fresh lime juice replacing lemon and the addition of jalapeño for a subtle heat.
The result is a refreshing drink perfect for spring and summer—with a smooth floral base and a little kick.
This recipe is Vegan, Gluten Free, and Soy Free.
Place approximately 4 cups of water in a saucepan or pot with a lid. Add the agave syrup, lavender buds, and thinly sliced jalapeño. Give the mixture a light stir.
Place the pot over high heat with the lid on until it starts to boil. Once boiling, reduce to low heat and let it boil (covered) for 5 minutes.
Turn off the heat and move the pot to a cool burner. Let it sit for 45–60 minutes.
The goal is to allow the steam inside the pot to cool, condense, and return to the liquid—enhancing the lavender and jalapeño flavors.
Once cooled, place a fine mesh colander over a medium bowl. Pour the mixture through the colander so the solids are separated and the liquid is collected.
Discard the lavender buds and jalapeño slices. Add the lavender/agave mixture and 1 cup of fresh lime juice into a 2 liter container. Fill the remaining space with cold water or ice and stir well.
You’re done! Pour over ice, relax, and enjoy the flavor.
This drink combines bright citrus with a light floral note and a subtle heat from the jalapeño. The spice builds slowly and balances the sweetness of the agave.
