Lavender Margaritas

Blueberries, raspberries, and lavender are all in season. And if you're lucky you have a few of these planted in your own yard so you can use the freshest ingredients. If not, try picking them up at your local Farmer's Market. Then enjoy a nice evening in the hot tub with this creative margarita!
