How to Make Lavender Honey Infused With Vanilla
- Fill the bottom of a double boiler with about 2 inches of water. Bring the water to a gentle simmer.
- In the top of the double boiler, combine 1 cup of honey, 2 tablespoons of dried culinary lavender buds, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Carefully monitor the temperature. Maintain the honey at 185°F (85°C) for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. Use a candy thermometer for accuracy.
- Remove the double boiler from the heat and let the mixture steep for another 10 minutes.
- Carefully strain the honey through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth lined strainer into a heatproof bowl, discarding the lavender buds.
- While still warm, pour the honey into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace.
- Securely seal the jars with lids and rings.
- (Optional) For an even more intense lavender flavor, allow the honey to infuse overnight after step 4, then gently reheat and strain before bottling.
- Label and decorate your jars creatively for gifting or personal use.
