Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 oz Gin
- 0.75 oz Lavender Simple Syrup
- 0.5 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
- 0.5 oz Orange Liqueur (e.g., Cointreau)
- 0.5 tsp Dried Lavender
- 1 cup Ice Cubes
- 1 piece Lemon Peel (optional, for garnish)
- 1 piece Edible Lavender Sprig (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Begin by preparing the lavender simple syrup, if you haven’t already. Combine 1/2 cup water, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon dried lavender into a small saucepan. Heat gently, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Once dissolved, remove from heat, let it cool, and strain to remove the lavender buds. Store in a sealed jar and refrigerate until use.
Fill a cocktail shaker with 1 cup of ice cubes.
Add 2 oz gin, 0.75 oz lavender simple syrup, 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice, and 0.5 oz orange liqueur to the shaker.
Seal the shaker tightly and shake vigorously for about 20 seconds, until the outside of the shaker feels frosty and cold.
Strain the mixture into a chilled martini glass.
If desired, garnish with a twist of lemon peel or a small sprig of edible lavender for an elegant touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your chic Lavender Ladies Martini.
