Don't we as a whole need to drink something that is hot pinky purple?! Sooo. The lavender and blueberry is the appropriate response. I had hurled a couple of lavender blossoms from my abandoned herb garden into my syrup a couple of hours sooner, sparing three sprigs for the topping of these beverages. Whomp. No can do now.
Lavender seasoning is certifiably not another thing here yet I presently couldn't seem to make my own mixed drink with it. Particularly when straight from my own greenhouse! For the syrup, I utilized a spoonful of dried culinary lavender blended with my very own tad bit new nursery lav to strengthen the flavor. There is something about sugar and lavender together that I simply ADORE.
It shocks me, since I've never been a flower individual. That is to say, sure, I like blossoms and love to have them as home style. In any case, I have genuinely serious occasional hypersensitivities that can likewise be effectively activated by overly elegant aromas. I will consistently pick warm vanilla, golden and musk over rose, gardenia or lilac with regards to fragrance.
Not exclusively is the blueberry an incredible compliment to the lavender, the crisp mint includes a stunning minimal home grown however new taste as well. It works so well.
