Asking about lavender?

Question

i'm wondering can u drink and eat lavender, i think you can but i'm looking for a recipe just on lavender, i would like to make a tea with it so i can drink it, i'm growing lavender but i'm lookinf for a just a lavender tea recipe.

Answer 1

I checked my book on herbs and from it the tea recipe for lavender was very brief  :- "use flowers".  

I really suggest that you go to a Herb or Aromatherapy web sit for more info as this is a really versatile herb/plant

Answer 2

You can certainly eat and drink lavender--it is an herb used in many recipes, ranging from tea to bread.  To make a tea, I would suggest starting off with a small amount of lavender in water.  Adding too much may result in a bitter-tasting tea.  I've included a recipe that sounds promising under the "source" section.  I'm sure you could easily modify the recipe to your personal taste (perhaps leave out the black tea to create a purer taste?).  Good luck!
