Blueberry lavender lemonade with vodka is the perfect cocktail for summer evenings. This purple drink is sweetened with agave nectar and real blueberries. There are two ways to make this, with fresh rosemary sprigs or by making rosemary tea with dried lavender (if you are using dried lavender, you’ll need to make your lavender tea in advance so it has time to cool). Please taste your lemonade as you go and adjust accordingly. I prefer tart to sweet, so 1/2 teaspoon of agave was plenty for me, but feel free to add more. Enjoy!
