Lavender Martini

To your favorite Martini, add a small flower head of lavender as a garnish. The lavender oils are quickly and subtly released by the alcohol. For a stiffer lavender flavor, shake or stir your martini with a tiny drop of lavender essential oil, and float a few lavender corollas across the top of the drink. Salute!
