DIRECTIONS
In a small saucepan, mix together the lavender, honey and water and bring to a boil. Turn the heat off and let the lavender steep for about 20 minutes or until the liquid is fully cooled. Pour this mixture into ice trays and freeze overnight.
In a small saucepan, crush the raspberries with the back of a spoon, all the lime juice, zest, honey and water. Heat to a low simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes. Let the mixture cool for about 10 minutes and strain through a sieve to remove the solids.

TIP
You could add a shot of gin, vodka or substitute a sparkly wine or champagne for the seltzer water for a refreshing cocktail.
