The one I created last night to keep me company was like a great date. He made me happy, made me feel good, and then I felt great in the morning. The secret is, as usual, fine fresh ingredients. My instinct reached for the No 209 gin, but finding my reserves low, opened a new bottle of Hendricks. Wanting to enhance the herbal qualities of the Hendricks, I tossed in a dash of rose water and some organic lavender simple syrup (thanks Square One!). I poured a healthy dose of fresh squeezed lemons juice and them some agave syrup when the first taste was too tart. Gently stirred over ice, I had a fragrant, wonderful companion for the night. And I did not feel like sharing him with anyone. He was mine...all mine! Ahh sweet To
