Make Lavender Syrup
In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup water and 1 cup granulated sugar. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring until the sugar completely dissolves. Add 2 tablespoons dried culinary lavender and simmer for 3-5 minutes to infuse. Remove from heat and let the mixture steep for about 15 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the lavender, and cool. You should end up with about 0.25 cup of lavender syrup.
