Astonishing and delicious result, not overly sweet or flowery, just balanced.

Living in Southern California I have had many margaritas. I love the uniqueness of this one. The hint of lavender adds a nice touch to the margarita. Perfectly balanced and not overly sweet. Thanks Simon for another hit. In my favourites.
