Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Dried culinary lavender
- 1 cup Water
- 1 cup Erythritol sweetener
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the water and dried culinary lavender.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it steep for about 5 minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat, cover, and allow it to steep for an additional 5 minutes to intensify the lavender flavor.
Strain the lavender mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl or pitcher, discarding the lavender buds.
Rinse the saucepan to remove any remaining lavender particles.
Return the strained lavender water to the saucepan, then add the erythritol sweetener.
Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until the erythritol fully dissolves, about 2-3 minutes.
Once dissolved, remove the syrup from the heat, and stir in the vanilla extract and lemon juice.
Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature before transferring it to a glass jar or bottle for storage.
Store the lavender syrup in the refrigerator, where it will keep for up to 2 weeks.
Shake well before each use and enjoy your sugar-free lavender syrup in your favorite beverages or desserts!
