Ingredients
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup granulated sugar 120g
- 1 tablespoon dried lavender 2g
Instructions
- Combine the water and sugar in a saucepan.
- Heat over high heat, swirling or stirring as the syrup ingredients warm, until the sugar has completely dissolved. This should take 3-4 minutes.
- Remove from the heat, and add the lavender.
- Infuse for 30-45 minutes. (Give it a taste at the 30-minute mark to see how it tastes for you. If you want a stronger lavender flavor, let it steep for longer.)
- When done infusing, strain through a fine mesh strainer lined with a paper towel to catch finer pieces of the lavender.
- Store in a mason jar for up to a month in the refrigerator.
