What a fun way to change up a classic drink! Adding beets for their earthy sweetness is a great idea, and lavender gives it a nice scent boost. I can't wait to try this Lavender Beet Collins. Happy drinking! scratch online

This Lavender Beet Collins sounds intriguing! I love the combination of earthy beets and fragrant lavender. Have you experimented with different herbs to enhance the flavor? I wonder how adding citrus might shift the drink’s profile. Thanks for sharing such a unique recipe! fnaf
