Pear and Lavender Mimosas

Instructions

1. 1

   In a pot, bring the water, sugar and pears to a boil until the sugar has dissolved. Simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat. Add the lavender flowers. Cover and infuse for 15 minutes.

2. 2

   Strain the syrup through a sieve, pressing the pears with the back of a ladle to extract as much syrup as possible. Compost the pears and lavender. Refrigerate until the syrup is completely chilled, about 1 hour.
