Lavender Ladies Martini
"This sounded so inviting I just had to post it. The lavender-honey water peeked my interest and I plan to try this tonight as my lavender is in full bloom right now! Found this on a site about Underground Supper Clubs. This was posted by a Club in Brooklyn, NY. The cook time is actually the time for the lavender to steep in the honey water and the carb count is incorrect as it takes the full amount of lavender water into account.."

This is my second favorite Lavender drink. My first is May wine which is crisp and light. This is a great soothing drink. Great for a stormy cool night. The honey lavender base warms the soul. It's a great discovery! -
Now this is what I call tea time! Love the honey! So warming and relaxing. With a hint of lavender in my favorite liquor Gin. Thanks.
