Lavender Simple Syrup ~ 1 TBSP Lavender Petals ~ 1 cup Distilled Water ~ 1 cup Sugar or Honey
Mix equal parts water and sugar/ honey in a small saucepan over low/med heat. Stir until sweetener is dissolved. For thicker syrup, reduce liquid by half over a light simmer. Remove from heat, add lavender petals, and cover. Steep for 5 minutes. Strain and pour into a vessel for storage. Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. |
Optional: Change up the herbs for different flavors. Rose buds, hibiscus, and chamomile are great alternatives.
