Lavender Blueberry Palmer
Part iced tea, part lemonade, this Lavender Blueberry Palmer might be your new summer go-to. Enhanced with homemade cannabis-infused lemonade, this easy sipper is incredibly refreshing and simple to create as long as you have the ingredients on hand. I highly recommend purchasing Republic of Tea's Blueberry Lavender Tea bags. The flavors and color of this specific tea is what makes this drink so special! Enjoy.
