Lavender Mint Water

Hi Everyone, it is Summer, even though, at the time of my writing this, Labor Day is upon us and I am determined to extend Summer as long as I can with this Lavender Mint Water. (FYI, Saturday, September 22nd is the first day of Fall.)

Are you on the "Summer Water" band wagon?

I am all about staying hydrated in those hot, humid summer months that we've had in New Jersey.

I feel like this Summer has been particularly hot for us and that spawned a whole host of inspired drink recipes for the blog.

Tips for Lavender Mint Water

• make sure to not add more than the required amount of lavender so that the taste does not become too "herby," if it does come out too herby, then just dilute with more water.

This Summer has been all about the icy, cold drinks.

The humid heat of New Jersey has inspired recipes like, Frozen Mint Lemonade, Homemade Frosted Lemonade, Lavender Lemonade Recipe, Mint Lemonade, Watermelon Juice, and Strawberry Lemonade.

Oh, and for the 21+ crowd, let us not forget Frosé (Frozen Rosé Wine)!
