Lavender Ladies Martini

This sounded so inviting I just had to post it. The lavender-honey water peeked my interest and I plan to try this tonight as my lavender is in full bloom right now! Found this on a site about Underground Supper Clubs. This was posted by a Club in Brooklyn, NY. The cook time is actually the time for the lavender to steep in the honey water and the carb count is incorrect as it takes the full amount of lavender water into account..
