A Café-Trendy Drink at Home
Lavender lattes have become a coffee shop staple, but they're surprisingly simple to make at home. The floral notes create a calming, spa-like coffee experience.
The Calming Connection
Lavender has been used in aromatherapy for centuries for its calming properties. While the amount in a latte is small, the aroma alone can help create a relaxing moment in your day.
Why Turkey Tail Coffee?
Turkey Tail Coffee complements lavender's calming effect. Turkey Tail supports gut health, and since gut health is connected to mood, this combination supports overall wellness.
Making Lavender Syrup
For the freshest flavor, make your own:
- Combine 1 cup water, 1 cup sugar, 2 tbsp dried culinary lavender
- Simmer 10 minutes
- Steep off heat for 30 minutes
- Strain and cool
Balance Is Key
Lavender can easily become overpowering. Start with less syrup than you think you need—you can always add more, but you can't take it away.
