Equipment
- measuring cups
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon dried lavender buds (culinary grade)
- 1 cup fresh blueberries (can also use frozen)
- ½ cup water
- ¼ cup sugar
Instructions
- Place the water, sugar, and blueberries into a small saucepan over med-high heat. Once the sugar has dissolved, add the lavender buds and bring to a boil. Mash up the berries while stirring constantly. Boil for 4-5 minutes and then remove from the heat. Allow the mixture to steep in the pan until it is completely cool, about 1 hour.
- Strain the solids from the liquid using a fine-mesh strainer. Discard the solids or save them for another use.
- Store the blueberry lavender syrup in a sealed container in the fridge for 3-4 weeks.
Notes
- For this recipe, you can use frozen or fresh blueberries.
- I intentionally made this syrup with less sugar than a regular simple syrup since blueberries are already sweet. If you want a thicker syrup, use an equal amount of sugar and water.
