Bought this during the very beginning of my tea journey. Earl Grey with lavender is a nice change from EG Créme, but it’s not something I necessarily seek out.
Brewed one bag in 6 oz of water. Added a bit of lavender syrup to bring it out over the bergamot (not such a fan of citrus alone in tea). Added 3 ounces of milk for a latte-style cup. It lacked the strength I look for in a wake-up tea.

Oooh…I never heard of lavender syrup. Is it sweetened?
Yes, its really simple syrup with food-grade lavender buds steeped in.
That syrup sounds good, does it make the tea very sweet?
No, not really, but I didn’t use too much of it.
I made it using 2.5 cups (591.5 ml) of sugar, 1.5 cups (354.8 ml) of water and 3 teaspoons (15 grams) of food-grade lavender Bring to a boil, dissolving all of the sugar. Remove from heat. Let sit for about 15 minutes and strain into a jar.
Ohhh, thanks for the recipe, I really like lavender so now I have to try this out!
