Ingredients

1 Person

1 tsp

dried culinary lavender
150 ml

unsweetened almond milk or your favourite milk
0.25 tsp

vanilla bean paste or extract
150 ml

cold water
1 x 0.5ml drop

foodspring sleep drops
1 tsp

maple syrup

Preparation

1

Place the milk, lavender and vanilla into a small pot over a medium-low heat on the stove. Warm the mixture until gently steaming then remove from the heat and pour through a sieve into a jug.
2

Use an immersion blender (stick blender) to blend the milk on low, allowing it to create a whirlpool effect – this incorporates air into the milk, making it frothy. If you don’t have a stick blender, you can pour the warmed milk into a French press (cafetière) and pump the filter up and down repeatedly until frothy.
3

Once the milk is frothy enough, pour in the cold water. Allow the drink to cool until lukewarm (slightly warmer than body temperature) then stir in the maple syrup and sleep drops. Enjoy the warm lavender milk.
