Here is an easy idea that doesn't take much time, but adds a nice touch. They make great gifts.
Clean and dry old-fashioned jars with good seals. Using regular granulated sugar and fresh clean herbs or edible flowers of your choice, layer inside the jar. Alternate until jar is full. Close and keep in a cool dry place.
The taste of the herbs flavor the sugars in about 3 days, but it will be at it's most flavorful in a couple of weeks.
Some good combinations are lavender sugar over fruit or replacing the sugar in sugar cookie recipes, dried orange or lemon peel sugar in hot or iced tea, vanilla bean sugar in coffee,
mint sugar in lemonade.
