Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Coffee grounds (medium roast recommended)
- 1 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Dried culinary lavender
- 1 cup Milk (optional, for lattes or creaminess)
- 1 teaspoon Honey or sweetener of choice (optional)
Instructions
Heat 1 cup of water in a kettle or saucepan until it reaches a near-boiling temperature (about 95°C / 200°F, or just before full boil).
Place 2 tablespoons of coffee grounds into your French press, pour-over filter, or coffee maker as per your brewing method.
Add 1 teaspoon of dried culinary lavender to the coffee grounds before brewing to infuse the floral notes into the coffee.
Pour the hot water over the coffee and lavender mixture and let it brew according to your coffee maker's guidelines (around 4 minutes for French press or pour-over methods).
If you prefer your coffee with milk, heat 1 cup of milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until warm but not boiling (or froth it for a latte texture).
Strain or separate your brewed lavender coffee into a mug.
Stir in 1 teaspoon of honey or sweetener of choice, if desired, for added sweetness.
Top with the warmed or frothed milk if prepared, or enjoy black for a more robust flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy the soothing aroma and taste of lavender coffee!
