Instructions

To make lavender simple syrup:

  • Combine water and sugar in a small pot
  • Heat until sugar dissolves
  • Add dried lavender
  • Simmer for 5 minutes
  • Remove from heat and steep for 30 minutes
  • Strain and store in fridge for up to 2 weeks

Notes

The cocktail tastes best when served very cold with fresh ice.
Store leftover lavender syrup in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
For a non-alcoholic version, replace the rum with coconut water and use sparkling water instead of prosecco.
Fresh lime juice works better than bottled for a crisp flavor.

Tasting Notes

This refreshing cocktail opens with sweet coconut notes balanced by bright citrus and floral lavender aromas. The aged rum adds warm vanilla and caramel undertones.

The first sip brings smooth coconut cream that melts on the tongue. Light bubbles from the sparkling wine create a pleasant effervescence.

Dried lavender provides gentle herbal notes without tasting soapy. Fresh lime juice cuts through the richness and adds a zesty finish.

Flavor Profile:

  • Primary: Sweet coconut, floral lavender
  • Secondary: Vanilla, caramel
  • Finish: Citrus, light bubbles

The drink maintains a silky texture while staying light and drinkable. The flavors blend together smoothly without any single ingredient overpowering the others.

Temperature affects the taste profile. Serve well-chilled between 38-42°F for the best drinking experience. As the drink warms, the coconut notes become more pronounced.
