Thanks for adding this one to the tea box, tea-sipper! I’ve been meaning to buy some plain lavender forever but never got around to it. I’ve been adding this to earl grey lattes at a ratio of 2 tsp decaf earl grey to 1.5 tsp lavender for a large mug. I’m afraid that regular earl grey will taste boring now! This offers a nice lavender flavor. I’d probably want to try another brand to compare, but I definitely want to buy some lavender from someone. Or maybe grow my own?

I get lavender at the farmer’s market. Lavender latte’s are fabulous, I especially love the flavor with coconut milk! I also make my own deoderizer spray for the house by steeping up a few teaspoons of lavender, letting the brew cool, then mixing it with a teaspoon of lemon juice and putting it in a spray bottle and topping with a bit of water. Has so many uses!
Oh, and with iced tea season here, I also love adding a few teabags full of lavender buds to a pitcher of lemonade! It’s a wonderful flavor combination.
I absolutely love all these ideas. Another thing I want to try is mixing it with my taro powder and having taro lavender bubble tea!
Lavender black tea is my favorite flavor at my local bubble tea place! I have crushed lavender buds in a coffee/spice grinder to a powder and mixed it with sugar and cocoa powder to make lavender flavored hot chocolate, which is de-li-cious! (Rose cocoa also is great!)
Not hard to grow!
I’m starting an herb garden in a few weeks, so I can definitely try it!

Certainly you can grow it yourself :) And certainly the plant is very pretty in few years!
