Preparation
  1. Prepare the Lavender Syrup: If making your own, combine equal parts water and sugar in a small saucepan. Add dried lavender and heat until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let steep before straining.
  2. Mix the Creamy Base: In a cocktail shaker, combine the coconut cream, lime juice, lavender syrup, and your choice of tequila or vodka.
  3. Chill and Shake: Add a handful of ice to the shaker. Firmly close the lid and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well blended and chilled.
  4. Serve It Up: Strain the mixture into a glass filled with ice. Garnish with a lime wedge and sprinkle a bit of dried lavender on top for that finishing touch.
  5. Enjoy!: Sip and savor the calm delight of this beautifully crafted margarita.
