If you love berries as much as we do, also try our chocolate blackberry crumble or triple berry paleo banana bread with lemon glaze. There’s nothing like a cold drink on a hot day! This refreshing, ice-cold blackberry lavender soda is everything you never knew you needed. With fresh, ripe blackberries and dried lavender, it’s lightly botanical and perfectly sweet. There’s no alcohol in this mocktail, making it sinless for sipping any time of day. It’s easy to make the syrup ahead of time so that all you have to do is pour some into a glass and top it with soda when the time comes. It’s versatile too; try blueberries or elderberries for a different but equally delicious take.
Blackberries – fresh, ripe blackberries are oh-so-sweet. Water – is used to make the syrup. Sugar – adds sweetness to the syrup. Dried lavender flowers – for their lovely floral flavor. Soda water – top it off with some sparkle.
We love making this fruity drink in summer when blackberry season is in full swing. Watch for them to appear growing wildly along trails, at farmer’s markets, or stocked in the produce section at your grocery store. If blackberries aren’t available in your local area, try blueberries or elderberries! Note: this makes 1 cup of blackberry lavender syrup. We like to use ¼ cup of syrup with 1 cup of soda water.
