Preparation

  • In a small saucepan, combine water, sugar, lavender, and the chamomile tea bag. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat, strain, and let cool completely.
  • In a shaker, add the gin, verjus (or lemon juice), floral syrup, and egg white (or vegan foamer). Add ice and shake vigorously to create a smooth, creamy foam.
  • Double strain into a chilled coupe or old fashioned glass. Garnish with edible flowers if you’re feeling extra Instagrammable. 💐
