Lavender Infused Gin
Ingredients
3 tsp fresh lavender flowers, approximately 3-6 sprigs
500 ml Gin (a basic, cheap gin is perfect)
Preparation
1
Cut your sprigs of lavender, shake off any dirt and pick off the flowers.
2
Measure three teaspoons of fresh flowers into a Kilner jar and top up with gin. Give the jar a good shake and leave in a cupboard.
3
After four hours taste the gin, It should be ready. If you prefer a more intense flavour then allow to infuse for a little longer, sample every half an hour to ensure the flavour doesn’t become bitter and overpowering.
4
When you are happy with the flavour, pour the gin through a fine sift and store in a sterile bottle for up to a month.
