Equipment

  • Small saucepan
  • Fine mesh sieve
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Pitcher
  • Stirring Spoon

Ingredients

  • ½ cup fresh lemon juice
  • 4 cups cold water
  • ¼ cup erythritol or preferred keto-friendly sweetener
  • 1 tbsp dried culinary lavender
  • Lemon slices and lavender sprigs for garnish
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  • Begin by boiling 1 cup (236 ml) of the water in a small saucepan.
  • Once boiling, remove from heat and add the dried culinary lavender. Cover and let it steep for 5 minutes to infuse the water with lavender flavor.
  • Strain the lavender-infused water through a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher, discarding the lavender solids.
  • Add the erythritol to the hot lavender water and stir until completely dissolved.
  • Pour in the fresh lemon juice and the remaining 3 cups (710 ml) of cold water. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
  • Taste and adjust the sweetness by adding more erythritol if needed.
  • Place the Keto Lavender Lemonade in the refrigerator to chill or serve immediately over ice cubes.
  • Garnish with fresh lemon slices and sprigs of lavender before serving.

Notes

Adjust the level of lavender to your taste. Start with less and add more if desired.
The sweetener can be adjusted to personal preference. Liquid stevia drops or monk fruit sweetener are also great keto-friendly alternatives.
This lemonade can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. Stir well before serving as ingredients may settle.
If you have access to fresh culinary lavender, you can use it in place of dried. Fresh lavender will provide a more vibrant color and flavor.
