Looking to de-stress after a long day of work? Or want a simple and satisfying after-dinner treat that will get you feeling cozy, relaxed, and ready for bed?? We have just the thing! Try out this Lavender Bed Time Milk that will send you straight into relax mode 
All you need is:
2 cups of water
1 tablespoon (raw) hemp seeds
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 
1/4 cup raw walnuts (cashews or blanched almonds will also work!)
dash of pink Himalayan salt
and of course, 1 teaspoon dried culinary lavender buds (our Royal Velvet is perfect for this!)

How to:
1. Blend the water, hemp seeds, vanilla, walnuts and salt until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy 
2. Pour into a small saucepan and heat over low-med heat until warm 
3. Place dried lavender in a tea sachet or disposable tea bag and let it soak in the milk and cover the saucepan. Let it steep for about ten minutes, then remove sachet and squeeze to release the excess lavender oils. 
4. Stir in honey to liking (optional-we found it perfectly sweet) You may also want to strain the milk before serving, or blend again to create latte-like foam

These two make the perfect duo for a calming tea! 
Bring about 4 cups of water to a boil then add two cinnamon sticks and about a tsp of dried culinary lavender (Royal Velvet pairs best).

Turn the water down to a simmer for 3-4 mins. You can then stir in some lavender honey, sugar, or milk of choice if you'd like.

Strain into your mug and sip on the tasty goodness
