Ingredients:
For the Lavender Syrup:
1 tablespoon dried lavender flowers
1 cup sugar
2 cups boiling water
Instructions:
Make the Lavender Syrup:
Place the dried lavender flowers in a medium bowl (preferably not Pyrex, which can crack when you add boiling water).
Pour the sugar over the flowers, and use your (clean) fingers to gently rub the flowers into the sugar.
Pour 2 cups of boiling water over the lavender sugar and stir with a spoon until the sugar has melted.
Cover and let infuse for 30 minutes (or up to several hours).
Strain the syrup to remove the lavender buds and pour into a serving carafe or pitcher.
