Turn those beautiful spring weeds into a tasty drink that's a wonderful support to the immune system!
Ingredients
Per serving:
12 ounces hot water
large handful of fresh violet flowers (about 20-30 violets)
handful fresh dandelion petals (about 4-5 dandelions. Make sure to just use the yellow petals! The other parts are bitter)
1 tablespoon honey or sweetener of choice (add more to taste, if desired)
½ lemon, juiced
Instructions
Pour hot water over the violet flowers and dandelion petals and let steep overnight or 8 hours (it will likely not have much color at this point or may be a light blue/green).
Stir in the honey and lemon juice and watch it turn to vibrant pink! Enjoy!
Notes
The pink color will continue to develop and get even more vibrant with time in the refrigerator.
