How To Make Lavender Latte At Home
Using 1 teaspoon of lavender simple syrup place in the base of your cup before adding the milk. Froth milk of your choice (I like 2% but any will do).
If you don’t have a milk frother you can simmer and add to a shaker cup to create a foamy experience.
Also, if iced is your preference of latte simply add ice to a glass before adding the ingredients and enjoy cold.
After you whip the milk and syrup together add the espresso shot(s).
Garnish with dried lavender sprinkles and have a slow living moment in the comfort of your very own home.
