Ingredients

1 cup - sugar
1 cup - water
1 ½ tablespoons - dried or fresh lavender flowers

Instructions

In a small saucepan, combine the water, sugar, and lavender and place over medium heat.
Bring the mixture to a simmer and lower the heat a bit. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes at which time the sugar should have completely dissolved and the syrup started to thicken.
Let cool slightly and then strain the mixture through a sieve to remove the lavender. Pour into an airtight container for storage.
Store syrup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to about 2 weeks.
Use around 1 to 2 tablespoons of syrup per cup when making drinks.
