Step 1

Prepare the lavender simple syrup by combining 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup water, and 1 teaspoon dried culinary lavender in a small saucepan. Heat over medium-low until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat, let cool, and strain to remove the lavender.

In a cocktail shaker, combine vodka, orange liqueur, lime juice, cranberry juice, and lavender simple syrup.

Step 4

Add ice cubes to the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is cold to the touch.

Step 5

Discard the ice or water from the chilled glass, if used, and strain the cocktail mixture into the glass.

Step 6

Garnish with a lime wheel and a small pinch of dried lavender, if desired.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy your fragrant Lavender Cosmopolitan.
