Fig leaves are the surprise — a distinctive green, faintly coconut, almost almond flavor that turns into one of the most interesting syrups we make. We harvest the leaves from our own fig trees at the café, which means we don't have to wait for fig season to make it — the trees give us leaves all summer long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLocally harvested fig leaves.
