We're back with another libation we love... this time work-approved and perfect when you need a little afternoon pick me up - an Iced Lavender London Fog. We are big fans of the traditional London Fog on a cozy day, but while we're still looking for something more refreshing, this iced version is perfect. And the lavender is a must!
So easy to fix yourself a glass between calls or whatever is keeping you busy. Level it up by making your own lavender-inflused simple syrup if you're feeling fancy.
