Lavender London Fog Chilled Latte

Found this great chilled lavender latte recipe by Alison Marras of Food by Mars. Check it out!

Ingredients

LAVENDER CONCENTRATE

  • 4 cups cold filtered water

  • 1/4 cup culinary lavender

    Note:

    If you’re strapped for time (or patience) and don’t want to make the concentrate, simply steep 1-2 tsp. lavender with your tea in hot (not boiling) water to taste and add milk and ice. Alternatively, you can enjoy it hot with a splash of milk!

LATTE

  • 1 cup hot water

  • 2 black tea or Earl grey tea bags

  • 1/2 Tbsp maple syrup or sweetener of choice (this helps to enhance lavender, you can skip if needed)

  • 2/3 cup lavender concentrate (or lavender tea)

  • 2/3 cup dairy-free milk of choice (unsweetened almond or coconut tastes the best, use coconut or tigernut for AIP)
