With warm weather struggling to break up the snow and ice (or fog, depending on what part of the country you live in), I couldn't imagine anything more delicious on a Friday afternoon than a tall, cold glass of lemonade. Add blueberries for sweetness and mint for a bit of excitement and you'll have warm weather, if only in a glass!

Yes I know it’s Fall, but the weather is still absolutely gorgeous and lemonade tastes great during any season!
There just so happens to be tons of gorgeous lavender growing outside my house and when I came across this recipe on one of my favorite design blogs (while looking for decorating ideas to pin…duh) I knew I just had to make it! Of course I did color the water a bit, just to make it pretty, but you can’t taste the coloring at all (I promise!) And it’s definitely not necessary. I simply mixed 1/4 cup water with one drop of blue coloring with one drop of red and voila!
