Cleavers Lemonade

I have been meaning to make this for a while. I had read it over at Johanna's Wild Concoctions and decided to give it a go.

So we gathered plenty from our rather abundant patches growing around the outer edges of our backyard.

Got together all the required ingredients (I used the blender method and then strained it through a muslin cloth (spent its previous life briefly as one of Danielle's blankies until she found a preferred one that is now a grey rag!). This is now my herbal cloth that I have taken out with me to gently bundle together foraged herbs and thought it would be good for straining too (it dyed a deep green from the cleavers juice, so I then had to add more juice to dye the rest - just in case it doesn't wash out lol).

And the final result was very nice! The kids had a small glass each as well.
