So you’ve simmered down some delicious edible redbuds in a sugar syrup, and you have plenty of pretty pink redbud syrup on hand. After a long day of spring gardening, here’s a lovely floral relaxer. Scoop of ice cream optional, but a nice addition.
Ingredients
1½ – 2 oz vodka (I used Ketel One’s Grapefruit Rose vodka)
1 oz lemon or lime juice
2 oz redbud syrup
Lemon slices and redbud flowers to garnish
Scoop of vanilla bean ice cream
1. In a cocktail glass, combine vodka, lemon or lime juice, and syrup; stir to combine.
2. Garnish with slice of lemon and redbud flowers, and if you like, add a scoop of ice cream. Enjoy!
