Pour into glasses with lots of ice. Drink up right away.

Pour everything through a fine sieve into a big jug so you can get rid of the bits. Add the chilled water and, if you're feeling fancy, add a couple drops of lavender oil. Give it all a good mix.

Move the pan off the burner. Drop in the lavender sprigs and cut-up strawberries. Let those chill in the mix for around 15 minutes.

Want things a little sweeter and more flowery? Go with Meyer lemons. Don't have any? Regular ones do the job—just add more or less sugar till it tastes right.
