Locally Made & Blooming with Flavor: King George Lavender Simple Syrup

At Cold Creek, we love supporting small businesses that care deeply about the quality and integrity of their products—and King George Lavender fits that bill beautifully. Based just up the road in Barnwell, SC, King George Lavender is a family-run farm known for its fragrant fields of organic lavender and the handcrafted goodies that come from them. Every item they produce is a true labor of love—grown, harvested, and bottled with care.

One of our favorite offerings from their line is the Lavender Simple Syrup—a refreshing floral syrup that brings the soft, soothing notes of lavender to everything it touches. Crafted in small batches with vapor-distilled water, pure cane sugar, and hand-harvested organic lavender flowers, this syrup is as clean and pure as it is flavorful. And in the heat of a Southern summer, it’s just the thing to cool you down in the most elegant way.

Here are some of our favorite ways to enjoy it:

Lavender Lemonade – Add a splash to fresh-squeezed lemonade for a floral twist that feels straight out of a spa day. It’s both calming and invigorating.

Iced Lavender Lattes – Stir it into your iced coffee or cold brew for a sophisticated, subtly sweet lift.

Cocktails & Mocktails – Mix it into a gin fizz, vodka spritz, or non-alcoholic sparkling water with a wedge of lemon for a porch-perfect summer sip.

Drizzled Over Dessert – Try it on vanilla ice cream, fresh berries, or lemon sorbet. It's also delicious over pancakes or waffles with a little fresh fruit.

Lavender Spritzers – Combine it with soda water, cucumber slices, and mint for a super refreshing mocktail that’s just as lovely to look at as it is to drink.

This syrup comes in a charming 9oz bottle and makes a sweet gift for your favorite foodie—or yourself! Whether you’re elevating your afternoon tea or creating a signature summer drink for guests, King George Lavender’s simple syrup brings a gentle, aromatic touch that’s both unexpected and unforgettable.

Come grab a bottle in our Market and bring a little local lavender luxury into your kitchen this summer.
