I brought the syrup to a boil, but since my sugar appeared pretty much dissolved by then, I just turned off the heat (without removing saucepan), and steeped for 30 minutes. I also doubled the lavender. Wonderful in hot (or cold) chocolate, lemonade, fruit salad, sparkling water, iced tea, whipped cream, cocktails, on ice cream, etc. On sleepless nights, try adding a spoonful to hot milk for ultimate relaxation!
