The Story Behind The The Lavender Margarita
The Lavender Margarita is a cocktail with all of the summer feels. The simple addition of lavender simple syrup -- sugar, water, and fresh lavender simmered until it turns a light purple -- brings in a subtle floral note while the bright and slightly sweet lemon keeps things loose. One garden flavor that will take you by surprise: green bell pepper. If green had a flavor, it would be bell pepper. If you've never thrown green bell pepper into your tequila cocktail, you've been missing out on a world of flavor.
