I LOVE the smell of verviene!  On Sun night we had dinner at Flat Bread Full of Life in Los Alamos and ended our meal with an absolutely delicious fig almond verveine tart - I was immediately inspired to make a verveine infused cupcake.  So...the pink verveine champagne cupcake was born.  

Bubbly champagne cake, filled with verveine infused pudding, topped with fresh raspberry frosting & a champagne soaked berry

The beautiful (and flavorful) berries are from Summerset Farms in Santa Ynez (You can even pick them yourself!).  The Lemon Verbena plant is from our local Harrison Hardware (& is now planted so we can enjoy lots more of the flavor in the future).
