🧂 Ingredients

5 strawberries

organic/pesticide-free if possible
½ cup blueberries

organic/pesticide-free if possible
10 chamomile flowers

optional - or use a few tablespoons of coconut chips
5 lavender flowers

optional
2 ½ quarts filtered water

or up to 3 quarts per recipe

Instructions

1 For each strawberry, pull the stem off, then carefully cut out the bit of stem
remaining so that it indents like the top of a heart. Holding the strawberry
upright, slice the strawberry top to bottom so that the slices resemble hearts.
You should have 3-4 slices per strawberry.
2 Slice each blueberry in half horizontally.
3 Place all the washed, prepared ingredients into the pitcher, then fill with
water. (If traveling, wait to do this at your location so that it doesn't
spill!)
4 The strawberries can fade over time, so having extra to replenish can be
helpful. If you'd like, remove the original strawberries with tongs or strainer
when adding the new.
