Preparation
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar and lavender. Massage with your hands for a few minutes, or until the oils release and the sugar smells strongly of lavender.
Step 2
Place the lavender sugar and water in a small saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, cover, then turn off the heat.
Step 3
Let sit for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours (the longer it sits, the stronger the lavender flavor).
Step 4
Strain the lavender buds from the syrup, then keep the syrup stored in a glass bottle or jar in the fridge for up to one month.
