Tasting notes and description

If you love the smell of lavender you may very well like to eat it! It’s quite unusual but I really like it. Floral but not too overpowering.

Uses

Use dried as an alternative confetti, as pot pourri, in soothing eye masks, tea (great with Earl Grey), bath salts etc. Use fresh in tea, cocktails, cakes, cookies (recipe to come!), flower arrangements, lemonades and much more!
