Marrakesh: and a tale of Peacock Pavilions and its cocktails

It must be Spring time because I'm serving cocktails at Peacock Pavilions made with flowers and herbs from our organic garden.  

*hibiscus flower cocktail with tequila  
*lemongrass lemonade with gin 
*lavender lovely with vodka.  {to name just a few}  

Every cocktail starts with a homemade simple syrup infused over low heat with the herb or flower.  It couldn't be easier but it's still special and unexpected.

{So I know it's Monday but cocktail, anyone?}

What are you drinking at your place?

Marrakesh: and a tale of Peacock Pavilion cocktails

They had come from near, they had come from far to Peacock Pavilions  in Marrakech.  One a mixologist, the other a circus ring leader.  Let us help you, they said, let us help you drink.   Drink more, drink better.

Oh Yes, I said.  Yes please {My head woozy in anticipation.}

And so the two visiting minxes put their heads together -- one with golden curls and the other with raven locks -- and they concocted cockails.  {And even illustrated them.}

And then it began.  The measuring...

The pouring...

The shaking, the straining....

The stirring...

 {Did I mention the steeping?}

Now serving at Peacock Pavilions boutique hotel in Marrakech............
