Lavender Bitters

Flavor Profile

Some flavors do more than taste good. Lavender has a way of slowing everything down, that soft, floral sweetness with its gentle herbal warmth that makes a cup of tea feel like a pause, a dessert feel like a retreat, and a cocktail feel like an occasion. Tasting notes of soft florals, honeyed sweetness, herbaceous finish, hint of vanilla

Lavender, a delicate flower known for its bright purple petals and floral aroma, is widely popular for its use in flavor as well. In culinary creations, lavender makes a wonderful ingredient in ice cream bases, flavored teas, pie fillings, and in flavored whipped cream recipes. Create all this and more with our organic Lavender Bitters.

Lavender has a penetrating, floral, and spicy aroma with notes of mint and lemon. It's versatile flavor has the ability to blend with decadent desserts as well as savory dishes too. Our Lavender Bitters bottles that calm, aromatic elegance bringing a sophisticated floral depth to baking, beverages, and cocktails that feels anything but ordinary. Delicate enough to complement, distinctive enough to define a dish entirely on its own. Ours is soft, herbaceous, and lightly sweet, more like a sip of well-steeped lavender tea than perfume in a bottle. Honeyed, balanced, and easy to layer into pretty much anything.

Whether you're crafting a lavender latte for a slow Sunday morning, folding floral flavor into a batch of shortbread, or shaking up a lavender gin spritz for your next dinner party our Lavender Bitters is the bottle that brings quiet elegance to every occasion

Lavender is incredibly versatile and can be used in both sweet and savory cooking applications. However, it is very potent and must be used sparingly. This lavender extract blends well with fine chocolates and can heighten the taste of cake batter or sweet pastry or shortbread dough before baking. Lavender flavoring can be infused with cream, milk, syrup, or wine to flavor sorbets and other desserts. We hope you enjoy this soft, floral-scented lavender flavor!

This lavender flower extract pairs particularly well with recipes including chocolate, berries, vanilla, lemon, honey, and herbs like rosemary.

A precision dropper is essential here as lavender rewards restraint and a few careful drops are all it takes to transform a recipe beautifully.

Reach it for when we want a drink to feel a little more special. Stir into a matcha latte and breakfast feels like brunch. Splash it into a French 75 and a Tuesday becomes a Saturday. Mix it with sparkling water and you've got the prettiest pale-blue spritz on the table, until you squeeze in a lemon and watch it shift to pink.
