Tiny jewel-like drops that catch the light like sea glass. Each piece balances the sharp brightness of Meyer lemon with the quiet calm of Proven\u00e7al lavender \u2014 a pairing that sounds unlikely on paper but dissolves into something utterly natural on the tongue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We cook our hard candy in small pots \u2014 no more than two kilograms at a time \u2014 so we can pull it from the heat at exactly the right moment. The sugar reaches hard-crack stage and receives a dose of fresh Meyer lemon juice and a lavender infusion we steep that morning. The mixture is poured onto a silicone mat, scored while still warm, and snapped into irregular pieces once cooled. The shapes are never uniform, and we think that’s part of the pleasure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nPlace one on your tongue and close your eyes. For a moment you’re standing in a field somewhere in the south of France, lemon trees behind you, lavender rows ahead.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

- As an afternoon pick-me-up with a cup of Earl Grey<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Dropped into a glass of sparkling water for a subtly flavored spritz<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Tucked into a pocket for a long walk \u2014 they dissolve slowly and keep the journey sweet<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Lavender Lemon Drops ship in a clear cellophane pouch tied with twine and a dried lavender sprig. They keep for up to two months in a cool, dry place \u2014 though they tend to disappear from the pantry well before then.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
