I'm totally addicted to using lavender as flavoring. If you think it sounds weird, may I suggest not knocking it like I did until you try it.

Steps:
- For the demerara sugar syrup: Combine the demerara sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.
- For the lavender lemon drop: Add the gin, limoncello, lemon juice and 1/2 ounce of the demerara sugar syrup to a cocktail shaker, add large ice and shake vigorously. Add the Moscato d'Asti, tumble-roll once to mix throughout and double-strain into a martini glass with a small sprig of lavender. Garnish with a lemon wedge and serve (do not muddle the lavender).
- Keep the remaining demerara sugar syrup covered in the refrigerator up to 1 month.
- Remove the peels from the lemons carefully, making sure not to include any of the pith. Place the peels in a large container and add the vodka (reserve the vodka bottle for later). Infuse until the alcohol strips the oils and color out of the peels, 12 to 24 hours.
- Meanwhile, make the simple syrup. Combine the sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.
- Fill the vodka bottle with about 27 ounces of the infused vodka and 7 ounces of the simple syrup and place in the freezer. Serve ice cold in chilled small copita or shot glasses.

LAVENDER & VANILLA LEMON DROPS
A delicious, light, experimental recipe I created. These are a good spring or summer cookie. For the lavender-vanilla sugar, I used --Rita--'s awesome recipe. (http://www.recipezaar.com/Lavender-Sugar-With-Vanilla-101039)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Cream butter and sugar.
- Stir in eggs - make sure butter, sugar, and eggs are completely blended.
- Stir in vanilla seeds and vanilla extract.
- Fold in lemon juice and zest.
- Gradually stir in lavender, make sure to mix well.
- Mix flour, baking soda, salt, and cream of tartar and slowly mix into wet mixture.
- Chill for 1 hour.
- On a fully prepped cookie sheet, drop cookies by the spoonful about 1 inch apart.
- Bake at 375 for approximately 10 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose the right lavender. Culinary lavender is the best choice for this recipe, as it has a milder flavor than other varieties. You can find it at most specialty food stores or online.
- Use fresh lemons. Fresh lemons will give your drop cookies the best flavor. If you only have bottled lemon juice, you can use it in a pinch, but the flavor will be less bright.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are just golden brown. Overbaking will dry out the cookies and make them less tender.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will give the flavors time to develop and the cookies will be easier to handle.
Conclusion:
Lavender lemon drop cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their delicate lavender flavor and bright lemon zest, these cookies are sure to be a hit with your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try!
