Its not easy to find recipes for cocktails with lavender bitters which is a shame, since they bring such a lovely floral perfume to a drink. So we were understandably excited when imbibe magazine published an article all about lavender bitters and the inventive bartenders who use them. That article included this recipe for a hummingbird, from bartender john stanton at chicagos sable kitchen & bar, and its the perfect introduction to this fragrant, delicate ingredient. The honey and orange blossom water turn the drink into a full-on bouquet, all tied together with a lemon-yellow ribbon.
