Equipment

  • Small saucepan
  • Mixing spoon
  • Fine mesh strainer
  • Pitcher or jar
  • Coffee maker or espresso machine
  • Ice cubes
  • Tall glass for serving

Ingredients
  

  • For the Lavender Honey Syrup:
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender
  • For the Iced Coffee:
  • 1 cup strong brewed coffee or 2 shots of espresso cooled
  • 1/2 cup milk or milk alternative optional
  • Ice cubes
  • Lavender sprig or dried lavender for garnish, optional

Instructions
 

  • Make the Lavender Honey Syrup:
  • In a small saucepan, combine the water, honey, and dried lavender.
  • Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring until the honey is fully dissolved.
  • Once it starts to simmer, reduce the heat to low and let it steep for about 5 minutes to allow the lavender to infuse the syrup with its flavor.
  • Remove the saucepan from heat and strain the syrup through a fine mesh strainer into a jar or pitcher, discarding the lavender buds. Let the syrup cool to room temperature.
  • Brew the Coffee:
  • Brew a strong cup of coffee using your preferred method, or use cold brew concentrate for a smoother taste. Let the coffee cool to room temperature if it's hot.
  • Assemble the Iced Coffee:
  • In a tall glass filled with ice cubes, pour the cooled coffee.
  • Add 1-2 tablespoons of the lavender honey syrup to the coffee, adjusting to taste. Stir well to combine.
  • If you prefer a creamier drink, add milk or your favorite milk alternative and stir.

Notes

Garnish with a sprig of fresh lavender or a pinch of dried lavender on top for an extra touch of elegance (optional).
