2 tablespoons of Lustae lavender coconut loose leaf tea
loose leaf tea
1/4 cup organic cane sugar
Edible flowers and lemon peel for garnish
Directions
Bring water and sugar to boil and stir until sugar is fully dissolved.
Remove from heat and add 2 tbsp of Lavender Coconut loose tea. Cover and steep for 5 minutes.
Using a fine mesh strainer, strain and discard tea leaves. Chill the strained tea syrup in refrigerator for 20 minutes.
If making Lavender Coconut popsicles, stuff each popsicle mold with 2-3 edible flowers and a fine strip of lemon peel.
Fill the popsicle molds with the chilled tea syrup and insert one popsicle stick into each. Pro Tip: Take care to not push popsicle sticks all the way down, keep 1-2 inches sticking up so you can hold them easily when frozen.
Place the popsicles in the freezer for a minimum of 4 to 5 hours or overnight.
When ready to pop, run the mold under hot water for a few seconds to loosen. Gently pull out the popsicles and enjoy!
Why Lustae?
It’s astonishing to think that yaupon tea was the drink of choice for thousands of years that was lost and found. This scrumptious tea is a natural source of caffeine provides an energy boost, without the caffeine jitters that can come from coffee. Say goodbye to bitter or over steeped tea. Yaupon contains little to no tannins so you can re-steep your tea multiple times without a change in flavor.
