Learning to make wildflower sodas
A.K.A. Becoming the Cottagecore Babe of My Dreams, Part 1
Summer has come and the world is exploding with flowers. Here in the south, an evening walk might smell like jasmine, gardenias, magnolias. Trees are dotted with neon pinks and pearly whites; vines erupt with orange and purple.
As an herbalist on the clinical track, a lot of my work is gathering plants and finding how to extract the most medicinal compounds from them. It’s rewarding, but it sometimes feels a tad “all business” for such a lush season.
So I told myself this year I would add a little whimsy to my life:
Enter wildflower sodas.
