Recipe: Lavender Essence

Lavender essence is an elegant and unexpected addition to many traditional recipes. I use this to enhance cocktails, desserts, and to make simple syrup. Be sure to use only organic, culinary grade lavender buds.

I like to store my Lavender Essence in a mason jar. It keeps in the refrigerator for about 3 weeks, if you can get it to last that long!
