1. In a teapot, combine the lavender flowers and mint. Pour boiling water over the mixture; steep 5 minutes.

Here is also a GREAT website that talks about the kind of lavender that is SAFE to eat. http://whatscookingamerica.net/Lavender.htm

Quote:

NOTE: Do not eat flowers from florists, nurseries or garden centers. In many cases these flowers have been treated with pesticides not labeled for food crops.
