a new flavor discovery that is delish

oh happy day!

This week is the start of really healthy eating and exercising more (like for real). It is summer and there are a lot of important events on the horizon...and I just want to be healthier. In an effort to catapult my good health forward, I went grocery shopping last weekend and stocked the fridge with three kombuchas. (I don't drink it every day, every other day is good for me.) I normally buy the Trilogy flavor which is raspberry, tart lemons, and ginger, but they were fresh out. I grabbed a Gingerade and in doing so, noticed a flavor I had never seen before - Lavender. Um, yum! I was hesitant to buy two because I wanted to make sure I liked it, but sure enough I did. It was delicious! I still really love the Trilogy and Gingerade ones, but the Lavender is a close second (the other two tie for first place). Many moons ago, my mom brought home some lavender shortbread cookies from a bake sale. At that point in life I was not aware one could eat lavender, let alone use it to bake with. The cookies made such an impression that one of the desserts at our wedding was (you guessed it!) lavender shortbread cookies. Eat more lavender things. It is low in calories and contains vitamin A - just don't add too much because it is quite strong. Enjoy!
