Lavender infused vodka, the perfect addition to my lavender lemonade! A refreshing drink for a hot summer night.

To say you need a recipe for infusing some vodka would be ridiculous. Add some flavored stuff to vodka, shake it up, wait... and it will be flavored. If you've never done it before maybe you might want to follow some loose guidelines, so I've provided a recipe below. When I've done this I haven't made a full bottle, I've added about a teaspoon of lavender flowers to about a cup of vodka, and shook it up whenever I thought about it, waited for 2 days and it's ready. Add it to my Lavender Lemonade and experience total bliss in a glass.

Lavender Vodka

Recipe from Just A Pinch

Ingredients
1 750 ml bottle vodka

2 Tablespoons dried lavender

Directions

Place lavender in a clean 1-quart jar. Using a wooden spoon, lightly crush lavender flowers against the side of the jar after adding vodka.
Cover jar tightly with a non metallic lid (or cover jar with plastic wrap and tightly seal with a metal lid). Let stand in the freezer for 4 days.
Pour vodka through a fine mesh sieve to remove all solids. Return infused vodka to original bottle. Or to give as a gift, pour infused vodka into a decorative jar. Label and seal. Place jar in the freezer up to 3 months to store.
