Dietician Tip

For best results, measure lavender carefully and buy fresh lemon juice — not from concentrate — or squeeze about 10 large lemons.

Directions

In a 1-gallon pitcher, add 4 cups of ice and set aside. In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the blueberries, sugar and lavender to the pan. Boil for about 5 minutes, until the blueberries have popped and all of the sugar has dissolved.

Strain the blueberry mixture over the pitcher of ice; discard the remaining blueberry mixture. Add the lemon juice and Splenda to the pitcher. Fill to the top with cold water. Mix well.

  • 1 package (16 ounces) blueberries
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon dried lavender flowers
