Rim margarita glass by wetting edge with lime slice. Dip rim edge into coarse salt until coated. In a cocktail shaker add ice, tequila, triple sec, lavender simple syrup and lime. Shake and pour. Garnish with lime slice and lavender cocktail pick. Cheers! Oh my my my, grandma will be impressed with this new version of a classical favorite. These cookies are so good...one just won't be enough! We like them dipped into chocolate, but the classical rolled in powdered sugar would still be delightful with these candies. Lavender Whiskey Balls1 Lavender Shortbread Cookie Mix 1 Cup powdered sugar 1 1/2 cups pecans, chopped 2 Tbsp Lavender Simple Syrup 1/3 cup Whiskey Candy Melts or chocolate chips for coating. Mix together Lavender Shortbread Cookie Mix according to package. Press dough into a 9" x 9" baking pan. Bake until lightly golden, let cool and then crumble the shortbread bars into crumbs. I like to use a gallon zip lock bag and then with rolling pin crumble the cookies as it creates less mess. In a mixing bowl, stir together whiskey, 1 cup powdered sugar and lavender simple syrup. Stir in the pecans and crumbled shortbread cookie mix until combined. Cover and place into refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Remove from the refrigerator and with a cookie scoop make your dough into small balls. Set on wax paper or silpat sheet. Melt your candy melts or chocolate and dip your candy balls into chocolate to coat. Let chocolate harden and serve. Enjoy!
It's raspberry season and we had to make up a fun cocktail to celebrate! Raspberry Lavender Lemonade Spritzer
1 cup raspberries 1 Tbsp water 1/2 cup Lavender Lemonade 3 cups seltzer water 3 shots Raspberry Vodka (Adult version) 1 shot Lavender Simple Syrup Lavender Cocktail Pick (garnish) In a small saucepan add raspberries and 1 Tbsp water. On medium heat bring raspberries to a simmer. Continue a low simmer until raspberries break apart about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and strain off seeds. You can do this by using a back of a spoon to squeeze the raspberry mush to release the juice. Set aside. In a large glass measuring container add lavender lemonade, stir in seltzer water and cooled raspberry juice. Add vodka and serve in a glass with ice. Garnish with raspberries, lemon and lavender cocktail picks. Cheers! |
