Frequently Asked Questions
- What’s better: English Lavender or French Lavender? Since taste is subjective, there’s no one clear winner here. I typically prefer the milder flavor of English lavender, which has less camphor than French, which means it tastes less piney or woody.
- Where can I buy food-grade lavender? While lavender isn’t an ingredient you’ll find at most grocery stores, you *might* be able to find it in the tea aisle. Look for a 100% lavender tea option. Otherwise, Amazon has plenty to choose from.
- What is the right ratio of espresso to water? I typically suggest using 1 part finely ground espresso to 2 parts water for a nice, strong brew.
