Directions
Pick your buds and leaves into a jar, filling it about half full. This doesn't need to be perfect. We aren't scientists here. (Well.... I might be a mad scientist, the jury is still out there.)
Pour vodka over it to the top of the jar.
Shake daily for 2 weeks.
In 2 weeks, you'll know whether it is strong enough by the scent.
If it isn't strong enough for you, strain the lavender out and pick some more, adding the same vodka back into the jar, and shake for another 2 weeks.
