I collected several sprigs of lavender flowers from my lavender plant in the back yard and put them in a bottle of 45 proof vodka for a week. During that time vodka became tinted reddish as the lavender oils seeped in to it. When I opened the bottle I was pleasantly surprised by the sweet scent of lavender. Well, it was pretty strong so I decided to mix it with lemon-lime seltzer. It was like drinking liquid lavender with an amazing refreshing taste. I put one drop of blue food coloring in to my glass and achieved this color.I think it is worth trying at least once.

Hi Ti, Thank you, nice to meet you as well. Have a great day
I am totally trying this! I love lavender, and use to make lavender ice cream and pannacotta, so a lavendel drink seems like a perfect idea to me!
Helena, I hope you'll like it. I did
