Lavender Simple Syrup
Add a sweet, floral flavor to your favorite cocktail, tea, iced coffee, or baked goods.
Equipment
- small saucepan
- lidded container
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp food-grade lavender buds (see note for a reputable brand)
- ¼ cup sugar
- ¼ cup water
Instructions
- Bring all ingredients to a boil in a small saucepan, or until the sugar is dissolved.

Notes
Make sure you use food-grade, organic lavender buds. This brand is reputable.
I personally like to leave some of the lavender buds in the syrup so they can further infuse as it sits in the fridge.
