Two glasses with lavender lemonade and a bottle with culinary lavender and blue pea flower syrup

Culinary Lavender and Blue Pea Flower Syrup

Chef Adriana Martin
This flower-infused syrup has five ingredients: culinary lavender, food-grade butterfly pea flowers, water, honey, and cane sugar. We are using Anova precision cooking for achieving professional results. We have experienced that when using the Anova Precision Cooker Nano for making homemade syrups, the cooking process is simple and helps with consistent results every time.

Notes

You can prepare blue tea extract with the butterfly pea flowers adding 1 cup of water with 1/3 cup of dried pea flowers.
Seal the bag and cook on the sous vide for one hour at the same temperature and time the lavender syrup is being made.
Drizzle some of the blue tea extract on top of the lemonade for achieving a layered, intense purple color. The blue tea turns purple-pink when in contact with citrus juice.
