A refreshing Primrose Lemonade is the perfect drink to enjoy during Beltane. The floral notes of primrose combined with the sweetness of honey make this a delightful beverage to celebrate the season.

2. Strain the flowers from the liquid and discard them.

3. In a separate jug, mix the remaining 2 cups of cold water, honey, and lemon juice.

4. Add the primrose infusion to the jug and stir until the honey is dissolved. Adjust the sweetness if needed.
