First you need to make the lavender syrup. In a shallow pan add half a cup of water and a tablespoon of lavender flowers and bring to the boil. Once the mixture is boiling, lower to a simmer and add a quarter cup of sugar and half a cup of liquid honey, stirring for five minutes on a low heat. Remove from the heat and chill overnight. Strain using a cheesecloth and store in an airtight container for up to ten days.// To make the cocktail, muddle the cherries with lavender syrup and the bitters in a mixing glass. Strain the liquid mix into a rocks glass, add the bourbon, triple sec and ice, and stir. Garnish with an orange peel and another maraschino cherry and serve.
