Ahhh this drink is so refreshing with the citrus flavor of lime.
To make lavender cocktails we've made it easy with our lavender cocktail gift set which includes lavender simple syrup, lavender sugar, lavender cocktail picks and a cocktail shaker. They can all be purchased separately as well.
​Cheers!

We love popcorn, flavored, unflavored and have it nearly every night. When our kids were young we ended up calling in mom corn. Yup...you can guess who liked it the most. We still like to play around with favorite flavors. We think you'll like this version as much as we do!  Sweet Lavender Popcorn 1 cup lavender sugar 1 Tbsp butter 3 Tbsp water 1/4 tsp salt 1/4 tsp cream of tartar 8 cups popped popcorn In a small pan combine lavender sugar, butter, water, salt and stir over medium high heat until it simmers, stir continuously for all sugar has been dissolved, let simmer for about 3 minutes more. Remove from heat and add cream of tartar stirring until combined. Drizzle over popped popcorn, stir until all pieces are coated. Place popcorn on wax paper and let cool and then serve.  This is so easy with our lavender sugar, but if you have your own culinary lavender buds you can use plain sugar and add 1 tsp ground lavender to replace the lavender sugar.
Enjoy and if you make it #norwoodlavenderfarm we would love to see your popcorn night! Lavender sugared nuts are perfect to have around for munching on, putting on top of desserts, or even sprinkled over salads. We like to make them up and add to a cute jar and give as a hostess thank you.  Lavender Sugared Pecans 1 egg white 1 Tbsp water 2 cups pecans 1/2 cup lavender sugar 1 tsp Culinary Lavender 1/2 tsp salt Preheat oven to 250℉ and line a cookie sheet with parchment or silpat liner. In a bowl combine egg white and water, with a whisk blend until frothy. Add in your nuts, stirring until coated with the egg whites. Add your lavender sugar, and culinary lavender stirring once again to coat. Pour your nuts onto your prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with the salt. Bake for 60 minutes, stirring every 20 minutes until coating is dry.  It is apple season in the Pacific Northwest and we're celebrating with a fun recipe we developed using this amazing fruit. You know how much I love Lavender, but my next favorite thing is caramel...and I had to use some of my favorite Caramel Sauce made by, Sweet Cravings Candy Co. for a yummy dip for this recipe. Makes you ready for the fall and want to lick your fingers.  Lavender Apple Ring Fries 2-3 apples, sliced 1/4" thick 1 cup flour 3/4 cup milk 1/4 cup butter, melted 1/2 cup lavender sugar (reserve 2 Tbsp for topping apples) 1/2 tsp cinnamon Preheat oven to 400℉. In a small bowl combine lavender sugar and cinnamon. Stir until blended and reserve 2 Tbsp. for topping apples. In a medium sized bowl mix together flour, lavender sugar, melted butter, and milk. With a whisk stir batter until smooth. Using a apple core slicer, cut the cores out of your apples, and slice 1/4" thick. Dip your apple slices into your batter and then lay them on a oil sprayed cookie sheet, or cookie sheet with silpat mat. Once you have filled your cookie sheet, sprinkle your reserved lavender sugar cinnamon mixture over the top of your battered apples. Bake in 400 ℉ for 20-25 minutes or until golden on top. While apples are baking make up your Lavender Caramel Dipping Sauce. Lavender Caramel Dipping Sauce 4 oz cream cheese, softened 1/2 cup caramel sauce 1/2 tsp lavender extract Combine with a hand held mixer in a small mixing bowl, cream cheese, caramel sauce and lavender extract until smooth. Drizzle over the top more caramel sauce. Once apples are toasted from the oven serve warm from the oven with your lavender caramel dip.   |
