When did lavender first show up in Adelaide cafes?

What is in a lavender latte?

A typical lavender latte, drawn from Adelaide cafes' menus and reviews, is built from the top down with lavender sprig (sometimes laid across the top), dried lavender (a few buds, for the smell more than the taste), milk foam (about 1 cm), espresso and milk (one shot with steamed milk) and lavender syrup (about 15 ml, at the bottom of the glass). Each cafe makes its own version, so this is a typical build, not one cafe's recipe.

How does The Froth count this?

A cafe counts for lavender from the first Google review we found that mentions it, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once. A change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before, only among cafes we have followed through both, so newly added cafes never look like growth. The 90 days end on the latest day with new reviews or menus (13 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Adelaide with all of a trend's names added up. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
