Lavender has been used for centuries as an herbal remedy, and does indeed appear to have antiseptic, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-convulsive, and last but certainly not least - anti-depressant properties. What a great drink to have on a hot summers day.

I didn't have any lavender on hand, so I used dried lavender buds instead. It worked just fine.
