Print Recipe

A refreshing iced lavender honey latte with creamy oat milk that combines floral notes, natural honey sweetness, and smooth coffee for a delightful and soothing drink perfect for warm weather.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender buds (food-grade)
  • 2 tablespoons honey (raw or local, or maple syrup for vegan option)
  • 1 cup (8 fl oz / 240 ml) strong brewed coffee or espresso, cooled
  • 1 cup (8 fl oz / 240 ml) creamy unsweetened oat milk
  • Ice cubes as needed
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Make the lavender infusion: In a small saucepan, bring 1/2 cup (4 fl oz / 120 ml) of water to a gentle simmer. Add the dried culinary lavender buds, then remove from heat and cover. Let steep for 10 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl and discard the buds.
  2. Brew your coffee or espresso: Prepare 1 cup (8 fl oz / 240 ml) of strong coffee or 2 shots (about 2 fl oz / 60 ml) of espresso. Let it cool to room temperature or chill in the fridge.
  3. Sweeten the lavender infusion: Stir 2 tablespoons of honey into the warm lavender infusion until fully dissolved. Add vanilla extract if using.
  4. Combine the latte: Fill a tall glass halfway or more with ice cubes. Pour in the cooled coffee, then the lavender honey infusion. Top with 1 cup (8 fl oz / 240 ml) of creamy oat milk. Stir gently until well mixed.
  5. Adjust sweetness and serve: Taste and add more honey or oat milk if desired. Garnish with a few lavender buds or a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.

Notes

Use culinary-grade lavender to avoid bitterness. Steep lavender at a gentle simmer to prevent soapy flavors. Honey dissolves best in warm liquid. Coffee ice cubes help prevent dilution. Oat milk Barista blends provide best creaminess. Store lavender honey syrup in fridge up to 1 week. Prepare coffee and syrup separately if making ahead.
