Ingredients

• 8 lemons Lemon (medium‑sized, juiced with pulp left in)
• 1 tablespoon Butterfly Pea Flowers (dried flowers, hand‑soaked)
• 1 cup Water (for soaking) (room temperature)
• 2 cups Water (for syrup) (cold)
• 1 cup Granulated Sugar (white, fine granules)
• as needed Ice Cubes (for serving)

Instructions

1. Juice the Lemons

   Cut each lemon in half and squeeze with a hand juicer, keeping the pulp in the juice for extra flavor. Transfer the juice to a bowl and set aside.

2. Strain Lemon Juice (Optional)

   Pour the lemon juice through a mesh strainer to remove large pulp pieces if you prefer a smoother drink.

5. Cool the Syrup

   Remove the saucepan from heat and let the syrup cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. You can place it in the refrigerator to speed up cooling.
