Lavender. The fragrance of summer and the perfect flavor accent to a picnic or light summer’s meal.
Known more for its fragrance than its culinary use, Lavender adds a slightly sweet floral flavor to baked goods, desserts, as well as salads and dressings. The buds / flowers of Lavender contain the essential oils that encompass the flavor and scent of the herb.
Here is a recipe for a Coconut Lavender Lemonade to help brighten up your summer meals.
