Enhance your drinks with this delicious honey lavender simple syrup. Made with just 3 ingredients, it's a perfect addition to cocktails, lattes, and tea.
Dissolve the honey. Add the honey, water, and lavender buds to a small saucepan. On medium heat bring the saucepan to a simmer, but not boiling, and whisk until the honey is completely dissolved.
Allow the lavender to steep. Remove the saucepan from the heat, and let the honey-lavender mixture steep for one hour. Set a timer so you don't forget.
Strain the lavender. Using a fine mesh sieve, strain the lavender into an airtight glass jar. Discard lavender. Add a tablespoon to your favorite cocktails or coffee beverages.
Notes
Look for culinary-grade dried lavender.
Do not boil the simple syrup as the lavender will become bitter.
