This blueberry lavender compote is made with natural ingredients and a must-try recipe for anyone looking for a unique and flavorful addition to their summer drinks and dishes.

Equipment

  • Tea infuser
  • Mug
  • Sauce pan
  • Wooden mixing spoon
  • Sieve (optional)
  • Airtight container (or jar)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 3 tsp maple syrup
  • 1/16 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp dried lavender
  • 1/4 cup water

Instructions
 

  • In a mug, combine your dried lavender and boiling water. Cover your mug to keep the aromas contained and let it steep for 5-7 minutes.
  • While your lavender is steeping, prepare the blueberry mixture. Combine blueberries and a dash of salt in a saucepan over low-medium heat. Stir with a wooden spoon and let simmer for 5-10 minutes breaking the blueberries down with a wooden spoon in the process.
  • Strain the lavender tea into the blueberry mixture and stir to combine. Add 3 teaspoons of maple syrup (or another sweetener of your choice). Cook for another 2-3 minutes over low heat until the flavors come together and the sauce thickens.
  • Remove from heat and let the mixture cool before pouring it into an air tight container. Enjoy the compote in a matcha latte or any other recipe of your choice.
