- 1 tablespoon culinary dried lavender
- For the lattes:
- 1 cup cold brew coffee
- 2 cups ice, plus more for shaking
- 1 cup skim milk

Method
- Make the lavender simple syrup: Combine the water, sugar, and lavender in a small saucepan. Bring to simmer over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Once all of the sugar is dissolved, turn off the heat. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.
- If using the Vitamix AerTM Disc Container, place all of the ingredients into the container and run the machine, beginning on the lowest setting and increasing to the highest speed, for about 6 minutes.
- Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve and discard the lavender. Let cool completely. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- Divide the 1 cup of cold brew and the 2 cups of ice among two glasses. Then, fill your cocktail shaker with additional ice. Add the milk and the espresso powder and shake like crazy for at least 30 seconds. Strain into the two glasses, then sweeten with the lavender syrup to taste.
- If using the Vitamix AerTM Disc Container, place milk and instant espresso powder into the container. Start on the lowest setting, then increase the machine to Variable 6 and blend for 30 seconds. Divide into the cups. Sweeten to taste with the syrup.
