Stocking up on this produce will make your dishes and drinks burst with vibrancy and deliciousness.

For our summer soirees, we’re loving our Ginger lavender lemonade recipe made with VitaFrute™ Lemonade.

Ginger lavender lemonade

Ingredients:

• Fresh lavender sprigs
• Organic coconut sugar
• Organic shredded coconut
• Lemon wedges
• Fresh ginger
• VitaFrute™ Lemonade
• Ice

1. Mix the lavender into the coconut sugar with your hands, so that the sugar is perfumed by the lavender (make sure the bowl is big enough to place your drinking glass’s rim into).

2. Add shredded coconut to the sugar mixture.

3. Rub a lemon wedge around the rim of your glass, then place the rim into the sugar mixture to create a sugared rim.

4. Chop fresh ginger into pieces and place into the glasses along with ice.

5. Pour in VitaFrute™ Lemonade, add a few sprigs of lavender and enjoy this summertime sensation!

And if lemonade isn’t your flavor of choice, try these instead.

Blood orange rosemary margarita

Wet the rim of the glass with blood orange and then dip the rim into rosemary salt (simply dice rosemary, mix with salt). Pour VitaFrute™ Margarita over ice, add blood orange slices into the drink and you have the perfect combo.

Lime coconut colada cooler

Rub lime along the rim of the glass and then dip into coconut sugar (mix sugar with shredded coconut). Pour VitaFrute™ Coconut Colada over ice, add sliced lime to the cocktail and it’s the glowiest sweet/sour treat ever.

Raspberry sage cosmopolitan

Muddle up fresh raspberries into your VitaFrute™ Cosmopolitan and garnish with a few leaves of fresh sage. This drink will transport all your senses in the best way.
