Grapefruit and Lavender Mocktail
A thirst-quenching, tart, herbal mixture, this grapefruit and lavender mocktail recipe uses vinegars from Tart as seen on From the Source, season 3. This recipe makes a batch of 6 drinks. Katie Button recommends serving it in a glass with a sugared rim to cut the sourness from the vinegar, and using crushed ice, if available!
