Notes

  • Experiment with ratios: Adjust the ratio of lavender to water and sugar depending on your taste preference. More lavender will yield a stronger flavor, while less will be more subtle.
  • Infusion Time: The longer you let the lavender steep in the syrup, the stronger the flavor will be. Experiment with different steeping times to find your preferred intensity.
  • Straining: Ensure you strain the lavender flowers thoroughly after steeping to remove any small pieces that could alter the texture of your syrup.
