A honey lavender latte pairs floral lavender and sweet honey with coffee. It is a mild, fragrant drink that works well as a spring or early summer coffee. The lavender is the accent — not the main event — which is easy to lose sight of when pouring.


### Honey Lavender Latte Recipe: Floral Coffee with a Touch of Elegance

難易度: beginner / 時間: 20分 / 分量: 1 serving

**材料**

- エスプレッソ:30ml
- ミルク:200ml

**手順**

1. Add syrup and honey to cup
2. Pull espresso
3. Add milk


## Make the Lavender Syrup First


> ℹ️ **INFO**
>
> **Lavender Syrup (makes ~200ml)**
> 
> - 100g (1/2 cup) granulated sugar
> - 100ml water
> - 1 tbsp dried culinary lavender


**Method**: Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until sugar dissolves. Add dried lavender, remove from heat, cover, and steep 10–15 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh sieve, pressing the lavender lightly. Transfer to a clean jar and refrigerate. Keeps for 2–3 weeks.


> ⚠️ **注意**
>
> **Use culinary-grade lavender**: Decorative, craft, or garden lavender may contain pesticide residues not intended for food consumption. Purchase lavender explicitly labeled as culinary or food-grade. The flavor difference is also meaningful — culinary lavender is selected for food-appropriate intensity.


## Ingredients for Hot Honey Lavender Latte (1 serving)


> ℹ️ **INFO**
>
> **Ingredients**
> 
> - 1–2 shots espresso (30–60ml)
> - 150–180ml whole milk or oat milk
> - 2 tsp–1 tbsp lavender syrup (to taste)
> - 1 tsp honey
> - Optional: pinch of dried lavender for garnish


## Hot Version

### Step 1: Add syrup and honey to cup

Warm your cup. Add lavender syrup and honey and stir briefly to combine.

### Step 2: Pull espresso

Pull espresso over the syrup and honey. Stir to dissolve everything.

### Step 3: Add milk

Steam milk or oat milk and pour over the espresso. Garnish with a small pinch of dried lavender if desired. The lavender does not need to be sipped — it is aromatic garnish.

## Iced Version

**Method**:
1. Combine lavender syrup and honey in a glass and stir
2. Fill with ice
3. Pour cold milk over ice
4. Pull espresso, let cool 30 seconds, then pour slowly over the back of a spoon onto the surface for a layered presentation

## Flavor Balance Reference

| Lavender syrup | Flavor | Best for |
|---------------|--------|---------|
| 1 tsp (light) | Faint floral hint | First time trying lavender coffee |
| 2 tsp (standard) | Clear but gentle floral note | Most preferences |
| 1 tbsp (pronounced) | Strong lavender dominance | Lavender enthusiasts |


> 💡 **TIP**
>
> **Roast selection**: The delicate floral notes of lavender are easily overpowered by a dark roast's intense bitterness. Use a light or medium roast — something with floral or fruit notes of its own works especially well with lavender. Ethiopian natural process coffees are a natural match.


## Without an Espresso Machine

- **Moka pot**: Strong moka coffee (60ml) works well
- **French press**: Brew concentrated and use 80–100ml
- **Cold brew**: For the iced version, cold brew concentrate (80ml) pairs cleanly with lavender

## Summary

- Make lavender syrup ahead of time — it keeps for weeks and takes 20 minutes to prepare
- Start with less lavender syrup than you think you need; too much is soapy
- Light to medium roast coffee lets the lavender come through
- Oat milk produces a creamier result and pairs particularly well with floral flavors
