2 cups water
2-3 drops of LorAnn Organic Lavender Oil (do not put more than 1/16 tsp) 1 drop LorAnn Purple Liquid Gel Food Color

FOR TEA:
6 Earl Grey tea bags
3 cups water

FOR VANILLA BEAN SWEET CREAM:
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup oat milk (or any milk you prefer)
1/4 cup lavender simple syrup (add more to taste as needed)
1 tablespoon LorAnn Organic Madagascar Vanilla Bean Paste
Dried lavender petals for garnish - optional

EQUIPMENT:
3 glass jars (Do not use plastic. Mason jars work well with this recipe.)

Directions

FOR LAVENDER SIMPLE SYRUP:
1. In a small saucepan lightly simmer the sugar and water until the sugar is completely dissolved for about 6 minutes.

2. Bring the pan off the heat and carefully drop 2-3 drops of lavender oil (more if needed) and stir to combine.
 
3. Add purple liquid gel food coloring and pour into a jar.
 
4. Allow to cool.

FOR TEA:
1. In the same pot bring water and Earl Grey tea bags to a boil.
 
2. Once boiled turn down heat and allow to steep for 8 minutes.
 
3. Strain and pour into a separate jar.
 
4. Allow to cool.
 
FOR VANILLA BEAN SWEET CREAM:
1. Add heavy cream, milk, simple syrup, and vanilla bean paste to a jar fitted with a lid and shake very well for 1 to 2 minutes. The ingredients should combine and become a thick sweet cream.
 
2. For an added foamy texture, use a hand frother and froth until foamy.
 
ASSEMBLY:
1. Lay out each jar filled with its component.
 
2. Add 2-3 tablespoons of lavender simple syrup to taste to a fresh glass.
 
3. Layer ice on top.
 
4. Next, pour 1 cup of tea.
