Directions
The Lavander cocktail is a low-alcohol drink designed to titillate your imagination when the aperitif time starts. It is fragrant, aromatic, and persuasive, with a mix of delicate perfumes that make the drink irresistible.
Do not expect a bomb, but rather a symphony. Even on the palate, it flows sharp, with a good balance between the pineapple’s sweetness and the lysergic tequila flavor.
Even the twist with gin is also very charming, more intense, and icy, acceptable.
Let’s move on to the ingredients of the Lavander cocktail: tequila, a little orange juice, pineapple juice, lavender, sugar syrup, and limoncello.
To crown this light aperitif, we have made a crusta of salt, orange peel, and lavender. Maybe leave half of the edge of the glass free since the crust has decoration and aromatic function.
Ingredients and doses for making the Lavander cocktail
- 4 cl of tequila

How to make the Lavander cocktail
Wash 1 organic and untreated orange and peel it.
Squeeze the juice and strain.
Chop 3-4 cm of the peel with a teaspoon of lavender flowers. Add a pinch of salt, stir and put on a plate.
Crush 2 pineapple slices in the colander to make the juice. If you are desperate, use a ready-made juice. If you are a pro, use the extractor.
Fill the shaker with ice, pour in limoncello, tequila, orange and pineapple juice, 1/2 teaspoon of lavender and sugar syrup, and shake for 12 seconds.
