Lavender is one of my preferred aromas and flavors so I like to consolidate it in sustenances and mixed drinks as much as I can. I figured it is pleasant to add a trace of lavender to one of my preferred mixed drinks… a gin and tonic. Not exclusively does this mixed drink have the lavender flavor and aroma, it additionally has the most delightful purple shading! It's a group pleaser without a doubt!
Gin and tonics are unfathomably simple to make and just use gin, tonic water and lime. Those are the standard gin and tonic fixings. You can include foods grown from the ground and more to give gin and tonics a turn.
To make a lavender gin and tonic we mixed the gin with dried lavender. We additionally mixed the lime juice with butterfly pea syrup to provide for mixed drink an excellent purple shading!
