Tea with lavender - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes! Fresh lavender can be used, but reduce the amount by half since it's less concentrated than dried lavender. Use about 1 teaspoon of fresh lavender buds per cup.
You can omit the star anise or replace it with a pinch of ground cinnamon or a few cardamom pods for a different aromatic twist.
Brewed tea stays fresh for up to 2 days in the fridge if stored in an airtight container. The flavor may weaken over time.
Absolutely! Replace black tea with caffeine-free herbal tea like rooibos or a floral blend to enjoy this drink without caffeine.
Add a teaspoon of honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar while the tea is warm. For a sugar-free option, try stevia or monk fruit sweetener.
Yes! Scale up the ingredients proportionally and use a large pot or pitcher. Keep it warm in a slow cooker on low or serve over ice for a refreshing option.
Yes, this recipe is naturally vegan as long as no animal-based sweeteners like honey are used (opt for plant-based alternatives instead).
Sure! A splash of almond, oat, or regular dairy milk adds creaminess. Add it after brewing to avoid curdling if using plant-based milk.
