Lavender Simple Syrup

Directions

1. 1
   In a sauce pot bring the water, sugar and lavender to a simmer.
2. 2
   Allow to simmer until the sugar is completely dissolved. Turn off heat and let sit until cool. Use or store in the refrigerator for up to a month. The longer you let the lavender steep in the simple syrup the stronger the flavor will be. I store it in the refrigerator with the flowers still in the syrup and strain it when I need it in a recipe.
