  • In Comes the Lavender: After 5 minutes, stir in the dried culinary lavender. Lower the heat and let the mixture steep for an additional 5 minutes. The aroma will transport you to a serene lavender field.

  • Sweeten It Up: Time to sweeten the deal! Add the sugar to the saucepan and stir until it completely dissolves. Let the mixture simmer for another 5 minutes to thicken slightly.

  • Strain and Cool: Remove the saucepan from the heat and strain the syrup to remove the flower petals. Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature before transferring it to a glass jar or bottle with a lid.  I love storing colorful syrups in decorative jars like these. Keep your syrup refrigerated and use within 7 days for ultimate freshness.
