• Detox Water with Lavender and Blueberry

The delightful scent of lavender combined with the wonderful taste of blueberries! We already know that lavender strengthens the nervous, digestive, and immune systems, and is also beneficial for ailments such as gas and bloating.

Place 1-1.5 cups of blueberries in a pitcher of cold water. Then add lavender (to taste) and refrigerate. Serve with ice. For a more intense flavor, you can crush some of the blueberries before adding them.
