Ingredients
  

2 cups unsweetened almond milk

1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup heavy cream or coconut cream for a vegan option

Ice cubes

Fresh lavender sprigs for garnish (optional)

Edible flowers for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Infuse the Almond Milk: In a small saucepan, gently heat the almond milk over low heat. Add the dried culinary lavender and allow the mixture to warm for about 5-7 minutes without boiling. Stir occasionally to release the lavender's flavor.

    Sweeten and Flavor: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the honey (or maple syrup) and vanilla extract. Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then strain out the lavender buds using a fine mesh strainer.

      Blend Cream: In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream (or coconut cream) until soft peaks form. If you want it slightly sweetened, you can add a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the cream.

        Assemble the Sippers: Fill a glass with ice cubes halfway. Pour the infused almond milk over the ice until nearly full, leaving just enough space for the cream.

          Top with Cream: Carefully spoon or pipe the whipped cream on top of the sipper, creating a lovely layered effect.

            Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish with fresh lavender sprigs and edible flowers for an extra touch of elegance. Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing flavors!
