Boozy Lavender Lemonade
Lavender is a herb known for its calming and soothing properties. It is often used in aromatherapy and herbal medicine to alleviate stress, anxiety, and promote relaxation. Having lavender in a drink can enhance its flavor and provide a subtle floral note. It can add a unique and refreshing touch to beverages such as cocktails, mocktails, teas, lemonades, and more. Additionally, incorporating lavender in a drink can also provide some of its relaxation-inducing benefits, making it a great choice for a calming and enjoyable beverage experience.
The earliest written record of Lemonade goes all the way back to 12th century Egypt, but this beloved beverage may go back even further. A medieval Jewish community in the 10th century had a beverage named ‘Qatarmizat’ which was a mixture of lemon juice and sugar. In the 12th century an Arabic doctor wrote about its heath benefits, and the beverage spread to Europe. Unfortunately the ingredients were expensive so it was initially only available to the wealthy and the sick.
During the Victorian movement, Ladies of the Temperance movement pushed lemonade as an alternative to alcohol. In fact, Sunkist had a slogan, ‘Good-bye to liquor, here’s to lemonade’. The White House banned alcohol from all state functions from 1877-1881. In fact, Rutherford B. Hayes’ wife Lucy, a renowned teetotaler, was dubbed, ‘Lemonade Lucy’
