Lavender, Gin, and Lemon Oh My

It’s the weekend again, and the first thing I do to unwind is to shake up a cocktail. Big surprise, right?  Here is where I like to explore different flavor options. I feel that messing up a cocktail is not that big of a deal as screwing up a whole meal.  I recently purchased a culinary grade lavender intending to create a fancy morning espresso. I also felt that somewhere there was a glass of Gin waiting to pair with the aromatic herb.  So here we are. I hope you get a second to indulge in this crisp, fragrant, and maybe a little too smooth drink. Cheers!

Recipe:

2 oz Gin

1 oz Limoncello

1/2 oz Lavender simple syrup (recipe follows)

Place all ingredients with ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. Garnish with lemon and lavender.

Lavender simple syrup recipe:

1 cup of water

1/2 cup sugar

One generous tbsp culinary lavender

Bring water to a boil, simmer until sugars dissolved. Remove from heat and add lavender; allow to cool before straining lavender. Store in the refrigerator for up to a month.
