For this week’s edition of Friday Happy Hour, I’m sharing a SUPER easy, porch friendly cocktail featuring a fun new ingredient: lavender. If you haven’t worked with lavender before, this is an easy way to start. By combining the floral, herby sweetness of lavender with tart lemonade, it makes a perfectly balanced cocktail that is my current favorite. I also love how the lavender syrup settles to the bottom ofthe glass ou could even add a splash of prosecco if you wanted to be fancy! Below is the recipe. Check out a video of me making this drink over on my Instagram. Cheers!
