The Best Spring Cocktails

And what signals spring like the smell of dew-wet lavender drying in the warm sun? I honestly can’t think of a more pleasing purple fragrance, can you?

I call it the purple gem of spring, and I think lavender should be the official flower mascot of spring. This blooming bush, which evokes so much magic and delight, is an obvious sign that warmer weather is here to stay for a while.

Who doesn’t love the floral and pleasantly sweet smell of blossoming lavender wafting on the cool springtime breeze? I know I do!

And to pay homage to this springtime favorite, follow along as I reduce springtime into the delicious liquid dimensions befitting a chilled cocktail glass.

Sounds quite delightful, wouldn’t you say? Let me show you how below.
