Notes

1821 Bitters out of Atlanta makes a lavender sea salt simple syrup that inspired this summertime experiment. Their Earl Grey bitters help balance the sweetness of the syrup and liqueur but other fruit or herbal bitters might also be interesting. As always, adjust syrup and citrus to your taste.
