When ready to serve give it a little stir with your paper straw and sip. If you want it sweeter or more lavender flavored add a little lavender simple syrup to taste. Don't forget to garnish it with lavender cocktail picks and a wedge of lemon. Enjoy!  Thinking about St. Patrick's day and how to add a little charm and luck of the Irish with a different twist. We came up with this drink to add a little Irish cheer and to celebrate with those who may be drinking green beer.  Lavender-Mint Lemonade Cocktail 1 cup peppermint tea, brewed 6 Tbsp Lavender Lemonade 2 shots vodka 1 Tbsp Lavender Simple Syrup 1 cups seltzer water 1 bottle ginger beer Lemon, Lavender Cocktail Pick and mint for garnish Combine 1 cup mint tea, 1 Tbsp lavender simple syrup, 2 shots of vodka and your lavender lemonade mix together until combined and powder dissolved, add your seltzer water and stir. Set aside. In 2 cocktail glasses filled with crushed ice pour in your lemonade mint base to fill your glass half full. Top the remaining cocktail glasses with ginger beer. Garnish your glass with a lemon wedge, mint leaf and a lavender cocktail pick. Both the mint and lavender are subtle in this drink, if you want more mint flavor double up on your bags on the brewed tea. If you want more lavender flavor double up on the Lavender Simple Syrup. 
We were inspired to play around with some cranberry vodka we had got from Wild Roots and the result was this fabulous recipe that is perfect for the Christmas holiday. Getting into the spirit of Christmas isn't hard with this beautiful drink. So easy to tweak the ingredients to make it to your liking.  Christmas Cranberry Cocktail 1 shot cranberry vodka ¾ cup cranberry juice 1/2 shot Lavender Simple Syrup top with champagne or sparkling water Garnish with Lavender Cocktail Picks and cranberries. To your glass add all ingredients and stir. To rim your glass you will need 2 plates, on one you will place about 1 Tbsp of lavender simple syrup on the second plate lavender sugar (or you can use plain sugar). Dip your glass edge into the syrup until all edges are wet. Then into the sugar. See below on how we sugar coated our cranberries and lavender.  Sugar Coated Garnish
Here is how we sugar coated our lavender and cranberries. Prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper. To a small bowl add an egg white. With a whisk beat the egg whites until light and frothy. In a second bowl add 1/3 cup of lavender sugar (or plain will work). With a small paint brush, paint a little egg white and dust with sugar. Turn your oven to 150-200℉ until dried (about couple hours). Feel free to share our recipes tag us #norwoodlavenderfarm we would love to see it! |
