In a saucepan, combine water, sugar, and dried lavender. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

Once boiling, reduce heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.

Strain the syrup through a fine mesh strainer to remove the lavender buds.

In a pitcher, combine the fresh lemon juice and the lavender syrup.

Add cold water to the mixture and stir well to combine.

Serve over ice and garnish with fresh lavender sprigs.
