Notes

  • For the best drink, make the simple syrup ahead so that the flavors have time to meld.
  • For a honey lavender syrup replace the granulated sugar with raw honey.
  • If you don't want pieces of lavender in your drink, be sure you strain the syrup before you add it to the milk.
  • Garnishing with lavender flowers makes such a pretty topping for this drink.
  • You can adjust the type of milk to your preference. Whole milk adds the richest and boldest flavor to a latte.
