Lavender Tea Latte

Lavender Tea Latte | Club Crafted

Lavender Tea Latte | Club CraftedWell, I think I’ve officially made my favorite *pretty* drink ever! It doesn’t get much better for me than this calming lavender tea latte that’s actually LAVENDER. For some, lavender is an acquired taste, but I’ve always loved it in drinks and just about anything else I’ve tried. Not only is this simple tea latte pretty but it tastes like a dream with vanilla steamed milk and a light, calming lavender flavor. There’s just something about that perfect foam on top that makes it feel like a decadent drink I’d order at an Insta-worthy coffee house.

Lavender Tea Latte | Club Crafted Lavender Tea Latte | Club CraftedI’m a nighttime tea drinker, so this caffeine-free tea latte is the perfect evening drink to help ease the stress of the day. I also LOVE chai lattes, but since I use caffeinated black tea as the base, it’s more of a morning drink for me. Lavender is extremely calming, so I’d consider this my de-stressing drink. I also use lavender essential oils in my bedroom diffuser when I want to relax before bed.

You’ll noticed I used honey as the sweetener for this recipe. As an alternative, you could use sugar or artificial sweeteners. Simply stir the sugar into the hot tea once you’ve removed the lavender buds. I personally like the taste of honey and lavender together, which is why it’s my preferred sweetener. Plus, I have a delicious orange blossom honey from a local farm in Orange County, and it’s my favorite to use for anything and everything.

WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk abou WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk about the new pins in the shop...but they SOLD OUT in 12 hours instead πŸ˜­πŸ™ Andrew and I are so overwhelmed with the love of the #FIPWarriors community. Thank you to anyone who's purchased a pin to support Milo's treatment! We're so close to the end now! One more batch of pins coming up soon 😽
What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas decorations?! 😭 Half our neighbors already took down their Christmas lights, so I guess the only goal is to not be the LAST one with lights up. How long do you keep up your decorations?
Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holi Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holiday card before it's a week til Christmas, so we can actually send one πŸ€ͺ When we get Christmas cards, I always feel like a little kid getting mail again! Do you send a holiday card??⁠
⁠
(Grab this DIY card holder in the blog archives! πŸ‘‰)
More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHO More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHOCKED to see Milo's pins sell out so quickly. We made 50 with the expectation that we wouldn't sell very many, but I just put in an order for more inventory! 😭⁠
⁠
This time we'll be selling black and white cat "FIP Warrior" pins to help raise money for Milo's treatment. Stay tuned - a pre-sale is coming! Pins will ship again in early January. In the meantime, there's plenty of other products available in the shop! (Visit my @etsy via the link in my bio)
NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your su NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your support of Milo while he goes through FIP treatment! I designed a new enamel pin to help us raise the funds to pay for Milo's treatment...THEN we sold almost all of the pins in just in a few hours! I'm so thankful and in shock of the generosity of our FIP community 😭⁠
⁠
There are a few left and more on the way, so you can SHOP NOW on @etsy and here on IG!! If you want a pin and they are sold out, please tag yourself below! Visit the link in my bio to purchase πŸ›β

"FIP Warrior" is the name we give to cats fighting FIP and the humans who help them, bringing awareness to the disease and possible treatments. Our Warrior Milo is almost halfway through his treatment and we couldn't be more grateful to see him getting better! Every purchase from my shop helps us to pay for his expensive treatments and is so, so appreciated πŸ™πŸΌ
🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since 🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since my last post (oops!) but I had to fit in my one obligatory fall photo before I dive straight into Christmas! If you caught my Stories recently, you may have already seen why I've been so absent...⁠
⁠
Last month, our sweet Milo was diagnosed with a disease called feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). It's very serious and has required our full attention to give him daily injections that should help him recover. The treatment is 84+ days long and has taken a huge emotional toll on us. You can learn more about Milo's FIP story in my profile Highlights!⁠
⁠
Long story short: I've been too emotionally drained from Milo's treatment, my regular work and the crazy world around us to even think about social media 😣 I truly don't know how you fellow creators do it! Hopefully the cheerfulness of Christmastime gives me the urge to create again! (πŸ“Έ cookies made for a project with @spectrumorganic)
