Into a cocktail mixing glass add a single plump ripe strawberry and two one-inch pieces of fresh rhubarb.

Using a muddler mash the strawberry and pieces of rhubarb to release the juices.

Add 1 cup of ice.

Add gin, lavender syrup, and the creme de Violette.

Using a long-handled cocktail bar spoon, give the mixture several turns.

Add the tonic water.

Strain the mixture into a chilled mojito style glass filled with fresh ice.

Garnish with stalks of rhubarb and slices of strawberry.

Serve.
