Celebrate Mother’s Day with a beautiful cocktail — also adaptable for a mocktail: an elegant Lavender Lemonade. To match, let’s make these charming Lavender, Lemon, and Olive Oil Shortbread Cookies. Before Lavender Sip & Nibble class, enjoy yourself by taking a walk outside and inhaling a bit of nature. It will do you good. Grab plenty of blooming lavender sprigs. We’ll use them in this class! (Dried lavender flowers are also fine to use.)

Optional Add On: Mircoplane Zester $15
The “gratest” tool in the kitchen! Parmesan cheese falls like snow, with so much surface area that “less is more”. But donÕt stop there! Also use to zest citrus, grate ginger, shave chocolate, sprinkle nutmeg, etc., etc.
