Technique Notes
Taste before you pour. Lemon sweetness varies enough that a fixed syrup measure will land differently on any two batches, and lavender turns soapy the moment it is over-sweetened.
Why the Lavender Lemonade Works
A floral non-alcoholic cooler that uses lavender bitters to lift simple lemonade into something genuinely complex. The honey syrup bridges the floral and citrus elements, creating a mocktail with real structural sophistication.
