For those who came out to the tour and tried the herb-infused simple syrups, the recipe is really easy, hence the name simple!
1 cup boiling hot water
1 cup sugar stirred into water until dissolved
1/2 cup herbs of choice steeped in the sugar water for 10 minutes. While you're steeping the herbs, make sure you cover the container with a lid or plate so the oils don't escape with the steam. Every so often stir and bruise the herbs in the mixture. After 10 minutes, filter the herbs from the syrup, store the flavored syrup in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Use lavender syrup in lemonade, mint in mojitos, lemon balm and seltzer as a homemade garden-fresh soda...the options are endless!
