Strawberry Lavender Sour

This recipe was shared with us by Veso, created as an exclusive for Valentine's Day. “The grapefruit and orange peel infused in Strawberry Solstice play really well with citrus juice. A splash of citrus creates something like an adult strawberry lemonade and the lavender syrup adds an amazing floral complexity to it,” said Chris Beyer, Veso’s CEO/Founder. “The lavender syrup helps the fruit flavors pop and adds an amazing floral component. It tastes like the best adult strawberry lemonade you’ve ever had."
