Ingredients:

  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon dried culinary lavender buds
  • 1-2 tablespoons honey (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Ice cubes (optional)
  • Lavender sprigs for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Lavender Milk Base:
    • In a small saucepan, heat the whole milk over low to medium heat until it’s warm but not boiling.
  2. Infuse with Lavender:
    • Add dried culinary lavender buds to the warm milk. Stir gently and let it steep for about 5-7 minutes to infuse the lavender flavor. Adjust the steeping time based on your preference for lavender intensity.
  3. Strain the Lavender:
    • After steeping, strain the milk to remove the lavender buds. You can use a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth for this step.
  4. Sweeten and Flavor:
    • Add honey to the lavender-infused milk. Adjust the amount based on your desired level of sweetness. If you like, add vanilla extract for an extra layer of flavor.
  5. Mix Well:
    • Stir the lavender-infused milk thoroughly to ensure that the honey is well dissolved.
  6. Chill (Optional):
    • If you prefer a cold lavender milk drink, refrigerate the mixture until it’s chilled.
  7. Serve:
    • Pour the lavender milk into a glass over ice cubes if you’d like it cold.
  8. Garnish (Optional):
    • Garnish your Lavender Milk Drink with a sprig of fresh lavender for a decorative touch.
  9. Enjoy:
    • Sip and enjoy the calming and aromatic Lavender Milk Drink!

Feel free to adjust the ingredients and proportions to suit your taste preferences. Whether enjoyed warm or cold, this lavender-infused milk drink is a delightful and soothing treat.
