Alcohol isn't usually my thing, but...


This really appealed to me somehow. This recipe makes one glass. Expand if you want to make more.


Earl Grey Tea and Lavender Cocktail
  • 3/4 cup earl grey tea (cold)
  • 2Tbsp gin
  • 2Tbsp honey simple syrup
  • 1Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 sprigs of lavender ( +1 to garnish)



Method


  • Honey simple syrup is 5c water to 1c honey, heated until the honey melts into the water
  • Put all the above ingredients into a shaker with the 2 sprigs of lavender and ice, serve over ice and garnish with another sprig of lavender



I suppose that you could use almost any fragrant, sweet herb. Bergamot would go nicely, too, actually, or lemon balm.
