Makes: 1 serving
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 oz gin
- 1 oz vodka
- 1 oz lavender syrup
- Prepare by simmering dried, edible lavender in simple syrup for 5 minutes. Add water 1 teaspoon at a time if your syrup is getting too thick–do not allow it to burn. Strain out the plant material while the syrup is still warm enough to flow easily, then chill to room temperature before using it in cocktails.
- 1 oz lemon juice
- ½ t food-grade CBD extract
- Lemon wheels and fresh lavender sprigs for garnish
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice.
- Shake well and strain into a glass.
- Garnish with lemon wheel and lavender sprig.
- Optional: the above preparation makes a strong drink, so consider serving it in a pint glass topped off with soda or seltzer for a sparkling, less boozy twist.
- Enjoy!
