    After almost 2 weeks of traveling by myself with 2 kids I am finally back home and ready to kick back, relax, and sip on something super special, like these Blueberry Lavender Fizz  mocktails! 

    2 tall glasses sitting on a wooden shelf. They are filled with ice and a drink that has a purple ombre effect. There are lime wheels in both drinks and one of them has a cocktail pick with blueberries threaded onto it laying across teh top. There is a wall in the background made of dark brown wood slats.

    Seriously, 10 days, alone, with 2 kids is a long time! I am pretty sure by day 4 they had both caught on to the fact that I was in over my head and took full advantage of the situation.

    Couple this with the sweltering heat and humidity of the south and you'll start to understand why I was craving an ice cold, fizzy, drink.

    2 tall clear glass filled with ice and a purple ombre drink on a wooden book shelf next to 4 vintage books that are leaning to the right side of the image.

    I have been obsessed this summer with making homemade sodas for myself and the kids. They love them more than any sugar loaded store bought soda and I like them because I have the option to turn my mocktail into a cocktail anytime I want. The blueberry lavender syrup for this drink is super easy to make and can be used for topping ice cream and is also delicious drizzled over pancakes too. It's a multi-tasking syrup, you gotta love that! 

    Want to see how simple this drink is to make? Just watch the video below!

    This drink is great as a mocktail, but if you want to make it a cocktail simply add 1 ounce of vodka or coconut rum.

    • 4 cups fresh blueberries
    • 1 cup water
    • ½ cup sugar
    • juice of 1 lemon
    • 4-6 1-2 inch sprigs of lavender

    Instructions

    To make the blueberry lavender syrup

    To make a drink

    1. Fill a tall glass with ice. 
    2. Add ¼ cup of the blueberry lavender syrup, squeeze in the lime wedge, and fill to the top of the glass with sparkling water. Garnish with lime wheels or blueberries if desired.

      I simply love that it is coconut rum that you used for this cocktail. As if there would be another choice? I say no. Perfection!

        Me too Angela!!! I love that I can make them without having to use one of those soda stream machines too. Just a little syrup, some club soda,and ice. It doesn't get much better than that!
