Keep Screen Awake

Lavender simple syrup

Combine the sugar, water, and lavender blossoms in a small pot and bring to a boil. Once the sugar has dissolved, turn off the heat and let the syrup steep for 30 minutes.
Filter the syrup into a small container using a fine mesh strainer.
Cool and store in the refrigerator for up to one month.

Lavender gimlet

Combine all of the ingredients into a cocktail shaker along with ice and shake for about 10 to 12 seconds.
Strain the gimlet into a martini glass or into a lowball (rocks) glass with an ice cube and garnish with a slice of lime.

Notes

If you are partial to a sweeter lavender cocktail, you can increase the amount of simple syrup in this recipe.
