Check out this delicious iced lavender latte recipe.
Ingredients:
- 2 oz espresso
- 1-2 tbsp lavender syrup, to taste
- Ice
- 6 oz milk, regular or plant-based
To assemble, fill a tall glass with ice. Pour freshly brewed espresso over the ice. Add 2-3 tablespoons of the lavender syrup, or to taste. Stir to combine. Finish with 6 oz of cold milk or a milk alternative.
Syrup Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup dried or fresh lavender
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar or honey
In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 3 tablespoons of fresh lavender.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and strain the lavender from the water, discarding the lavender blossoms.
Return the lavender-infused water to the saucepan and add 1 cup of honey.
Heat over low heat, stirring until the honey dissolves completely into the lavender water.
Allow the syrup to cool, then transfer it to a container for storage in the refrigerator.
Tip: The lavender syrup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
