- 3/4 oz fresh lemon juice

Instructions
Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients
Begin your mixology adventure by collecting all ingredients. You will need fresh lemon juice, lavender syrup, sparkling water, and a sprig of lavender for garnish. Measuring tools like jiggers and a mixing glass will be essential to ensure the perfect balance of flavors.
Step 2: Mix the Lemon Juice and Lavender Syrup
In a mixing glass, combine freshly squeezed lemon juice and lavender syrup. Use a jigger to measure the quantities accurately, ensuring that the sweetness of the syrup complements the sourness of the lemon. Stir gently to blend these two ingredients, allowing their flavors to intermingle like a sunny afternoon in a lavender field.
Step 3: Add Sparkling Water
Pour sparkling water into the mixture with a gentle touch. This addition will infuse the Lavender Spritz with effervescence, creating a refreshing brush against your palate. Give it a light stir to combine, but remember to keep some bubbles intact for that delightful fizz.
Step 4: Prepare the Glass
Choose a lovely glass to serve your Lavender Spritz. Fill it with ice—crushed or cubed, whichever you prefer. The ice will keep your cocktail refreshingly cold, making it perfect for warm weather. Pour your cocktail concoction over the ice, watching as the colors blend beautifully.
Step 5: Garnish and Serve
Finish your masterpiece by adding a sprig of fresh lavender as a garnish. Not only does it elevate the presentation, but it will also release aromatic notes as you sip. Serve your Lavender Spritz immediately and smile as your guests delight in the floral experience.
