This Lavender Lemon Drop Martini is my go-to cocktail when I want something that’s both elegant and refreshing.

The delicate floral notes from the lavender syrup pair beautifully with the zingy lemon juice and smooth vodka.

It’s sunshine in a glass—with a botanical twist that makes every sip feel like a special occasion.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

A refreshing spin on a classic lemon drop.

Features a lovely floral aroma and flavor thanks to lavender syrup and bitters.

Gorgeous presentation with a sugared rim and lemon twist.

Easy to mix up for brunches, bridal showers, or cozy evenings.

What You’ll Need (Ingredient Highlights)

Vodka: The clean, crisp base of the cocktail.

Lavender Syrup: Adds soft sweetness and floral depth.

Fresh Lemon Juice: Balances the sweetness with tangy brightness.

Orange Liqueur: Adds a hint of citrus complexity.

Lavender Bitters: Optional, but they elevate the floral notes beautifully.

Sugar: Used to rim the glass for a sweet finish.

Lemon Wedge & Twist + Lavender Sprig: For garnish and aroma.

Pro Tips Before You Start

Chill your martini glass ahead of time for a better sipping experience.

Use fresh lemon juice, not bottled—trust me, it makes all the difference.

Shake vigorously until the shaker feels frosty—that’s how you know it’s cold enough.

How to Make Lavender Lemon Drop Martini

Step 1: Prepare the glass
Spread sugar on a small plate.

Rub the rim of a martini glass with a lemon wedge, then dip the rim into the sugar to coat. Set aside.

Step 2: Shake the cocktail
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine vodka, lavender syrup, lemon juice, orange liqueur, and lavender bitters (if using).

Shake until the shaker is frosty.

Step 3: Serve
Strain the chilled cocktail into the prepared martini glass.

Garnish with a lemon twist or a sprig of lavender.

What to Serve It With

Pair this cocktail with:

A cheese board featuring goat cheese or brie

Tea-infused desserts like shortbread or macarons

Light appetizers such as cucumber sandwiches or smoked salmon canapés

Variations / Substitutions

No lavender syrup? Try honey syrup with a drop of lavender extract.

No orange liqueur? Use triple sec or skip it for a cleaner lavender-lemon profile.

Want it sweeter? Add an extra splash of syrup to taste.

Storage & Leftovers

This cocktail is best made fresh and served immediately.

However, you can batch the liquid ingredients ahead of time (without ice), refrigerate, and shake with ice when ready to serve.

FAQs

Can I make this a mocktail?
Yes! Replace vodka with lemonade and skip the orange liqueur. Add lavender syrup and bitters to taste.

What vodka is best?
Go for a smooth, mid-range vodka like Tito’s or Ketel One for clean flavor.

Can I use dried lavender instead of bitters?
Yes, you can steep dried lavender in hot water, strain, and mix into your syrup for a DIY version.

How do I make lavender syrup at home?
Simmer equal parts sugar and water with a tablespoon of dried lavender buds. Strain and cool before using.

Can I use bottled lemon juice?
Fresh lemon juice is best. Bottled will give a flat, less vibrant flavor.

Do I have to rim the glass with sugar?
It’s optional—but adds a lovely sweet contrast to the tart lemon.

Final Thoughts

This Lavender Lemon Drop Martini is more than a drink—it’s a moment.

Whether you’re toasting a sunny afternoon or winding down at the end of the day, the floral-citrus balance hits just right.

Sip slowly, garnish beautifully, and savor every bright, fragrant drop.
