Lavender Milk Tea is a soothing experience that combines the calming properties of lavender with the creaminess of milk, creating a delightful and gut-friendly sip.
Ingredients
Scale:
2 tablespoons dried culinary lavender flowers
2 teaspoons loose black tea (or 2 tea bags)
2 cups water
1 cup milk (or dairy alternative such as almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk)
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust for sweetness)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Once boiling, remove from heat and add the dried lavender flowers and loose black tea (or tea bags). Cover and let steep for about 5 to 7 minutes.
Strain the tea into a separate container using a fine mesh strainer to remove the lavender and tea leaves.
In the same saucepan, add 1 cup of milk (or your chosen dairy alternative) and heat gently over low heat.
Once the milk is heated, combine it with the strained lavender tea and stir well until fully incorporated.
Pour the Lavender Milk Tea into your favorite mug and enjoy it warm.
