Cocktail Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lavender Sugar Rim

    In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and dried lavender flowers together. Moisten the rim of your cocktail glass with a lemon wedge, then dip it into the lavender sugar to coat the rim. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the Cocktail

    In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the lavender infused gin, fresh squeezed lemon juice, creme de violette, and simple syrup. Shake well until the mixture is chilled.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared cocktail glass. Garnish with a lemon wedge or a sprig of fresh lavender if desired.
