Lavender Lemon Drop Martini

Description

The Lavender Lemon Drop Martini is a modern floral twist on the classic Lemon Drop Martini, which rose to popularity in the 1970s in San Francisco.

It's become especially popular at spring and summer events, known for its pastel hue, aromatic complexity, and visually striking presentation. The cocktail strikes a perfect balance between citrusy brightness and calming floral depth.
