This lavender lemonade cooler is the perfect drink for an extremely warm February here in south Florida. Since I no longer am able to drink I have been playing around with non-alcoholic beverages. Please keep in mind if you are one of my readers/followers that has MCAS this may be a direct trigger for anaphylaxis as it contains sparkling water (fermented) as well as lemon. As many of us know, this is something we are unable to confirm until we’ve tried the ingredient. Please proceed with caution and enjoy if it’s safe for you!

- 1/3-1/2 cup water

Instructions
- Start off by making a simple syrup with your water and maple as well as your butterfly pea flowers or powder. (both work great)
- Next, slice your lemon in half and add the lemon once the color has become a deeper blue due to your flower addition. Once this occurs add in your lemon and you will see the color change from blue to purple.
- Taste your lemon maple mixture and keep in mind that there will be additional sugar added from the sparkling water. Don't add the vodka quite yet.
