Lilac Rose Margarita | Deco Tartelette

The lilacs have been absolutely outrageous this year!!! I'm stocking up my pantry with all sorts of lilac goodies and one of my favorite staples is Lilac simple syrup...it is so lovely in this delicious cocktail which is full of springtime flavor. This Lilac Rose Margarita is perfect for any spring gathering or to sip on while lounging on your front porch or in your edible flower garden. The glass is rimmed with rose salt which turns this libation into a drink fit for any garden party. Enjoy!
