Instructions

1.
In a saucepan, combine the Jersey milk and dried lavender flowers.
2.
Heat gently over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 20-30 minutes. Do not boil. This will infuse the milk with the lavender flavour.
3.
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly for about 10 minutes. This allows the lavender flavour to fully infuse.
4.
Strain the milk through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove the lavender flowers. Discard the lavender flowers.
5.
Stir in the honey and lemon juice. Taste and adjust the sweetness as needed. Start with 2 tablespoons of honey and add more if desired.
6.
Pour the mixture into ice lolly molds.
7.
Place the molds in the freezer for at least 4-6 hours, or preferably overnight, until completely frozen.
8.
To release the lollies from the molds, dip the molds briefly in warm water.

Chef's Tips

For a stronger lavender flavour, use more lavender flowers or infuse for a longer time.

If you don't have ice lolly molds, you can use small paper cups with popsicle sticks.

You can substitute agave syrup or maple syrup for honey if preferred.

For a more complex flavour, add a pinch of salt to the milk mixture before heating.
