- Is raw egg white safe?
- If using fresh, reliable eggs, risk is minimal. If worried, use pasteurized egg whites (carton) or skip the foam.
- Can I prep syrup ahead?
- Yes! Lavender syrup (water, honey, lavender) keeps for weeks in fridge.
Lavender Fizz Lemonade
This isn't grandma's lemonade. It's an elegant, sparkling mocktail crowned with light egg white foam – like a famous 'Gin Fizz'. Lavender and lemon are a classic pair, but texture play makes this drink truly special: the meeting of tart, fizzy base and creamy, sweet foam is an experience in every sip.
