Lavender Gin Toddy

I first made this for the monthly Sunday afternoon supper club I run, called The Secret Garden Club, set in my garden. Myself and my colleague, Zia Mays, do a gardening workshop or demonstration of how to make something, then I cook a high tea from the ingredients. I concocted this drink when we were showing original recipes for herbs from your garden. Lavender and gin are a potent floral combination.
