Notes
To make the lavender simple syrup add 1cup water, 1 cup sugar and 5 tablespoons dried lavender in a saucepan.
Bring the water, sugar and lavender to aboil for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Then let it all simmer for another 15-20 minutes or longer if you prefer more lavender. The longer it simmers and sits, the more taste and smell you’ll get from the lavender.
Strain the liquid into a bowl to remove the bits of lavender. Pour into a jar and refrigerate.
You can also make this recipe using a store bought lavender syrup too.
