PROVENCE LAVENDER CORDIAL-SYRUP
An exquisite blend of lavender flowers and herbes de Provence makes for a pleasant, refreshing cordial--perfect for a summer's day! Stir into lemonade, teas, ice-water, champagne or cocktails, -or- drizzle on pound cake, waffles, pastries, puddings or fruit. Lovely! I like to make this in the early summertime, when the lavender flowers are still fresh! Try it in my recipe #250030, or whisk a few spoonfuls into whipped cream, or thicken with powdered sugar for a glaze. Makes a beautiful hostess or Christmas gift, tied with a pretty lavender ribbon!

- Cover, and let flowers steep for 30-45 minutes.
- Strain through a fine mesh sieve or paper coffee filter into a measuring glass (with a lip for easy pouring).
- Add lemon juice.
- Pour into a clean container (preferably sterilized), cap, and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks, or freeze.
- Note: the syrup will not freeze solid-- you will be able to scoop out a spoonful easily!
- Stir a spoonful of Lavender Syrup into your favorite beverage! It's delicious in lemonade, tea or ice-water. Try it in my Provence Cocktail, recipe # 250030. OR, drizzle over pancakes, waffles, French toast, scones, fruit, puddings, cakes or ice cream. Thicken with confectioner's sugar to make an exquisite glaze for cookies or cakes.
- Makes a beautiful hostess gift tied with a pretty ribbon!

REFRESHING LAVENDER CORDIAL
A pleasantly refreshing, calming & restorative drink with an exquisite flavour. It's ideal on a hot summer's day, and is delicious when mixed with sparkling water or, even champagne/sparkling wine! Make sure the lavender has not been sprayed with insecticides and rinse gently under cold running water (to dislodge any insects) before use. Alternatively you can buy culinary lavender from herbalists or specialist shops.
