Martini - Lemon Lavender Martini

Lemon Lavender Martini

Lavender

Ingredients
2 lemons equivalent to 2 ounces of juice
4 ounces Gordon's Vodka  http://www.gordons-gin.co.uk/
2 ounces lavender simple syrup

shaker
bar strainer or fine mesh strainer
2 martini glasses
ice

Add to shaker 5 ice cubes, 2 ounces of fresh lemon juice or substitute bottle lemon juice, 4 ounces Vodka, 2 ounces lavender simple syrup. Place glass over shaker and shake, shake shake.  Strain into glasses.

You may eliminate the shaker/strainer and mix ingredients into a small pitcher, then pour over ice in glasses.  The ice dilutes the drink, but I have served it both ways.

I like to put the empty glasses into the freezer to chill them.

Enjoy

New path

Today I am creating a new path, not in the garden but on the web. I think it is time to start a blog, a place that I can share my interests and passions which ultimately lead to a party of some type. So please be patient while I muddle through getting started.
