Lavender is the star of this refreshing drink!
I tell people not to worry too much about simple swaps and imprecise measurements. You want to go a little heavy on honey or use rum instead of tequila? Go for it—you’re not negotiating the Treaty of Versailles. Lavender is the exception. It’s so easy to overdo this ingredient and condemn your drink to barely potable potpourri. That said, lavender can be sublime when applied appropriately. My sweet spot is when it barely registers.
Alcohol is a great solvent or, to put it another way, very “grabby.” Not only will it mix with water, sugar, and citrus juice when you shake it into a cocktail, but it also does a really good job of stripping essential oils from other substrates. In the case of this drink, we’re stripping the lavender essential oils from the dried flower buds. As opposed to the butter rum infusion, which takes hours, this infusion takes only 5 minutes, so you don’t need to plan ahead.
