Say, “Good-bye” to boring honey. For real. Go ahead– I’ll wait.
Honey by itself is good, but why shouldn’t it be irresistible? I can’t think of a reason. Lavender and orange, can’t go wrong with those flavors. Both are tasty in lattes, baked goods, and anywhere else you routinely use honey.
Not only will you be doing cartwheels over how delicious your morning coffee is, you will congratulate yourself on being a master chef, *applause and cheering* because each honey flavor requires only two ingredients and you can make them both in 10 minutes. *dorky smirk and eyebrow raising*
I do have to say that honey is still sugar and I know that lavender and orange are you favorite flavors, but don’t go sticking a straw in the jar and sippin’ the day away. You will have a stomach ache and your dentist will be sending me an angry email. Just try to control yourself, okay. *she says to herself*

- Heat the honey in a glass container for 1 minute.
- Pour into a jar.
- Hold the lavender sprigs so the flower side is facing down and push into the hot honey.
- Let sit for 5-7 days, gently turning and flipping the jar every day to ensure that the flavor disperses.
- Once you are satisfied with the flavor, remove the lavender sprigs and discard.
- Heat the honey in a glass contained for 1 minute.
- Mix in the grated orange peel.
- Let sit for 5-7 days, gently turning and flipping the jar every day to ensure that the flavor disperses. You can try to fish out the orange peel pieces when you are satisfied with the flavor if you prefer. I like to leave mine in the honey.
I was just telling my sister about how I want to make my own lavender lattes! Thanks for the tips!
It always makes my day when recipes fall right into my lap. You won’t be disappointed!
Yum! I love anything with lavender 🙂 I think I will also try rosemary infused honey! My other favorite herb!
Mmmm, Katherine, rosemary honey would be a winner, for sure!
So glad for this instruction! I grew
My own lavender for the first time this year. Yum!
That’s wonderful, Alex. Growing your own food and herbs is so rewarding.
