Instructions
- Make the Lavender Simple Syrup: In a small pot, heat sugar and water to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce to a simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add lavender buds. Let steep for 5 minutes. Strain the syrup to remove the buds. Chill until completely cooled.
- To rim your glasses, pour a little white sugar and the lime zest onto a plate and spread to cover. Moisten the edge of each glass with a lime wedge and dip into the sugar plate.
- Pour prosecco into each glass over ice with 4-5 sprigs of fresh mint, filling the glasses half way.
- Stir in 1 ounce of vodka into each glass and between 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of the lavender simple syrup, depending on taste.
- Top off with more prosecco and more mint sprigs if desired. Serve immediately.
