Thanksgiving Centerpieces and Lavender Cosmopolitans

Lavender

Lavender is wonderful, the smell reminds me of summer sunshine and a warm blanket all in one. It is a great flavor to take into the colder months and has become the new hot item at Cookshop. Marcello Butron, a “barchef” at the hot eatery near the Highline shared his recipe for Lavender Cosmopolitans that he makes with our home-grown lavender.
