I made this as is. It makes my cocktails taste fresh. Gin, little of this syrup ,juice of half lemon ice and top off with club soda. Yummy! Tastes like Spring! - 08 Sep 2018 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
I found it to be extremely weak, I normally boil my simple syrup down to be somewhat on the thicker side, maybe not enough lavender buds, I don't know? - 03 Mar 2018 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
Okay, so I just bought a herb arrangement from the local high school horticulture sale. I don't want to wait for blossoms, so I used some stems. Delicious! Lavender latte like the fancy coffee shops! Used about 10" of snips from the plant in place of blossoms. - 05 May 2017 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
