Best Lavender Pour Over Coffee (How To)

Time: 10-15 minutes

This is an easy recipe using volume measurements (no scale needed).

Recipe for 8 oz (236 mL)

Equipment

• pour over dripper
• coffee filter
• kettle
• grinder for herbs and coffee (you can use the same one or use two different grinders, and the type of grinder you use is your preference)
• mug

Ingredients

• 2-2.5 tbsp of ground coffee
• 1 heaping tsp of whole lavender buds
• 8 oz of water

Instructions

1. Grind the lavender buds so they release the oil a bit. It doesn’t need to be a powder, just break up the buds.
2. Set your water to heat up to 200 F (93-94 C). *
3. Grind your coffee medium to medium-fine.
4. Place the coffee filter in the dripper.
5. Put your ground coffee and lavender in the filter.
6. When the water is at the correct temperature, pour it over the grounds, slowly in a spiral motion beginning at the center.
7. Allow time for the water to filter through the grounds once entirely before continuing.
8. After the first spiral of water has filtered through, pour the remaining water over the grounds continuously until the kettle is depleted.
9. Once all the water has filtered through, it should be dripping very slowly. You can now remove the dripper and enjoy your lavender infused coffee, or share it with someone.

*If you don’t have an electric kettle, get it to a rolling boil then wait about 30 seconds for it to cool while swishing it a little.
