As you know, the title of this website is Lavender and Coffee. So, you can imagine my excitement when I came across a recipe for just that, Lavender Coffee!! Of course, I had to give it a try!
Normally speaking (on any other year) I’d be touring the Lavender Farm in Mona, Utah today with hundreds of other people. I’d be enjoying a nice cold cup of Lavender Lemonade. Due to circumstances this year, I won’t be touring the farm. But, in honor of it, I chose today to try my Lavender Coffee Cold Brew. Yum!
I host a Coffee Chat once a week, it also happens to be on Wednesday. So, when better to try this out? A Wednesday, having a coffee chat, on the day I would be visiting a lavender farm. Best of both worlds, right?
You can find the original recipe here. However, I changed it up a bit and used my essential oils instead. *Note to self: 4 drops of Lavender may be a tad too much! Yep, I added a few too many drops, but it was still soooo good!
