There is nothing quite like a warm latte to get you through a long study session. Making your own lavender syrup at home is surprisingly simple and it saves you so much money compared to visiting a cafe every single day.

I love this recipe because the floral scent is so calming while you work. If you have any leftover syrup, keep it in a small jar in your fridge so you can stir it into your morning coffee or tea throughout the week.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons dried culinary lavender
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 shots of hot espresso or 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee
  • 1 cup milk of your choice
  • Ice if serving cold

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine the water, sugar, and dried lavender in a small saucepan over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and stir until the sugar has completely dissolved.

  3. 3

    Remove the pan from the heat and let the syrup steep for about 10 minutes before straining out the lavender buds.

  4. 4

    Brew your espresso or strong coffee and pour it into a large mug.

  5. 5

    Stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons of your homemade lavender syrup depending on how sweet you like it.

  6. 6

    Heat and froth your milk, then pour it over the coffee and enjoy immediately.

💡 Tips

Store any extra lavender syrup in an airtight glass jar in your refrigerator for up to two weeks. You can use soy or almond milk if you prefer a plant based option, and it works perfectly in both hot and iced versions of this drink.
