Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Lavender Milk Tea
- Boil and steep the lavender. Bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Remove from heat and add 2 tablespoons of dried culinary lavender. Cover and steep for about 5 minutes.
- Heat the milk. Pour 1 cup of your choice of milk into a small saucepan. Heat over medium-low until warm and steaming, avoiding boiling.
- Strain the lavender infusion. Use a fine mesh strainer to pour the lavender mixture into a pitcher, discarding the dried flowers.
- Combine tea and milk. Pour the warm milk into the lavender infusion and stir gently until well combined.
- Sweeten to taste. Gradually add honey or sugar while stirring, tasting to achieve desired sweetness. Optionally, add a splash of vanilla extract.
- Serve and enjoy. Pour into cups and enjoy hot or chill for an iced version.
