Serving Size

Equipment

1 teakettle or saucepan (for steeping tea)
1 mesh strainer (to catch tea leaves or lavender bits)
1 small bowl (for blooming the lavender)

1 measuring cup (for accurate amounts)
1 long spoon or cocktail stirrer (for mixing)
2 Tall glasses for serving

1 small saucepan (for syrup, if making homemade lavender syrup)
1 fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth (optional, for straining syrup)
1 ice cube tray (for serving chilled)

Ingredients

2 green tea bags or 2 teaspoons loose green tea
2 cups boiling water
1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender or 2 tablespoons lavender syrup
1 tablespoon honey or simple syrup adjust for sweetness

1/2 cup club soda or sparkling water
Ice cubes as needed
Lemon slices and extra lavender sprigs optional, for garnish

Instructions

Boil 2 cups of water and pour over green tea bags or loose leaf tea in a heatproof bowl.

Add dried lavender or lavender syrup to the hot tea. If you’re using dried lavender, steep for 5 minutes, then strain well.
Stir in honey or simple syrup while the tea is still warm.
Let the tea cool to room temperature, or pop it in the fridge to chill faster.

Fill two glasses with ice cubes.
Pour the cooled lavender green tea over the ice, filling each glass about three-quarters full.
Top with club soda or sparkling water, and give it a gentle stir.

Garnish with lemon slices or a sprig of lavender if you’re feeling extra.

Notes

I taste as I go, especially since lavender and tea can be strong or weak depending on the batch. Over-steeped lavender can get bitter, so I watch the clock. Milder green tea keeps the flavors balanced.

Sometimes, I use store-bought lavender syrup to save time. But making it at home with lavender, water, and sugar is easy too. If I’m making this for friends, I’ll just double everything and use a big pitcher. A splash of lemon juice or some fresh berries is fun if I want to mix things up. Flavored sparkling waters—lemon or berry—can totally change the vibe, but it’s never complicated.

Tasting Notes

First sip? I get a gentle floral scent from the lavender. It’s calming, not in-your-face, and it plays nicely with the tea.

The taste starts with a mild green tea note. Kind of grassy, but smooth—nothing harsh or overpowering.

Lavender brings a soft sweetness and a hint of herbal flavor. It balances out the tea, so there’s no bitterness sneaking in.

Texture and Sensation:

The sparkling water adds a crisp, lively feel.

Each sip is full of tiny bubbles—super refreshing.

Honestly, I love how the herbal lavender and crisp green tea come together with those bubbles. The whole thing just feels clean and light on the tongue.

If I toss in a splash of lemon or lime juice, it adds a gentle tang. Just enough extra freshness—never too sour.
