Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, cream together unsalted butter and both types of sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
In a small bowl, combine Earl Grey tea leaves and lavender buds.
In another bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt; gradually mix this into the wet ingredients.
Fold in the tea and lavender mixture gently.
Scoop tablespoon-sized dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

For a vegan option, use a flaxseed egg and coconut oil instead of butter.
