With this recipe from Zoyaaz, we invite you to create not just a drink but a memory, bringing joy and inspiration into your kitchen. Let’s get started on this enchanting concoction!

Ingredients:

• 4 ripe kiwis, peeled and chopped
• 1 tablespoon dried lavender flowers
• 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
• 2 cups cold water
• Juice of 1 lemon
• Ice cubes
• Fresh lavender sprigs (for garnish)
• Kiwi slices (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Start by brewing the lavender. Place the dried lavender flowers in a heatproof bowl, pour a cup of boiling water over them, and let it steep for about 5 minutes. Strain and set aside to cool.
2. In a blender, combine the chopped kiwis, cold water, honey, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth, capturing the vibrant green color and tangy, fruity aroma of the kiwis.
3. Add the cooled lavender infusion to the blender mixture and blend again briefly to mix well.
4. Fill four glasses with ice cubes. Pour the kiwi-lavender juice into each glass, allowing the aromas to meld beautifully.
5. Garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh lavender and a slice of kiwi to add an extra touch of elegance.
6. Serve immediately, and enjoy the harmonious blend of flavors in every refreshing sip!

Helpful Tips and Variations:

• If you can’t find dried lavender flowers, lavender syrup can be used as a substitute.
• For an added twist, consider blending in a few mint leaves for a refreshing hint.
• Serve in a chilled glass for extra refreshment, perfect for summer days.
• This drink is great for children’s parties or as a sophisticated choice for family gatherings.

Storage and Substitutions:

• Refrigerate any leftover juice in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Shake well before serving again.
• For a sugar-free option, use stevia or any natural sweetener of your choice instead of honey.
• If kiwis are out of season, you can substitute with golden kiwis or even ripe green grapes for a different note.

Pairings and Complements:

• This delightful drink pairs wonderfully with light snacks like cucumber sandwiches, a fresh fruit platter, or delicate shortbread cookies.
• For a more filling option, serve alongside a light salad with a citrus vinaigrette.
