Introducció
September 15th is Mexico's national holiday, a date that evokes colors, flavors and characteristic aromas. In the Valle de Guadalupe, Aires de Lavanda takes advantage of this season to offer experiences that combine Mexican tradition with the relaxing scent of lavender. In addition to its purple fields, the farm has a mixology bar, gelato cart, tours and workshops where visitors learn about aromatic plants. This week we invite you to discover how lavender can be part of your national celebrations and what activities you can enjoy at our farm and online store.
Lavender and national holidays: Mexican flavor with an aromatic touch
The national holidays are characterized by the Cry of Independence, typical dishes and regional music. Why not add an aromatic touch to your gatherings? Lavender is used in mixology around the world; for example, lavender lemonade, which combines lemonade, vodka or gin, lavender syrup and prosecco. It can be transformed into a mocktail by substituting mineral water for vodka. At the Aires de Lavanda bar you will find craft beers - with blonde, stout, stout with lavender and wine beer varieties - and our beers have just had a new look; they are available on weekends at the mixology bar. Inspired by these ideas, prepare patriotic cocktails with lavender to toast independence: purple margaritas, tequila with fresh lavender water or mezcalito with lavender and lime.

International inspiration: lavender in cocktails and culture
In Provence (France) and several regions of the United States, lavender is featured in summer festivals and incorporated into baking recipes, honeys and beverages. Lavender lemonade is an example of how this flower adapts to festive cocktails, combining lavender syrup with citrus and bubbles to create a refreshing drink. Likewise, bars in New York or London are serving *lavender margaritas* and *gin fizzes* with lavender foam, proving that the flower can put a sophisticated twist on classic drinks. Adopt these ideas for your national holidays and surprise your guests with floral flavors that evoke joy.
