Ingredients:
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons dried edible rose petals or 1 tablespoon rose water
- Optional drop of red or pink food coloring
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved.
- Remove from heat and stir in the dried rose petals or rose water. Let steep for 10–15 minutes, then strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove petals if used.
- If desired, add a drop of food coloring to enhance the rose hue.
- Allow the syrup to cool completely, then transfer to a clean glass jar or bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
- Use dried culinary-grade rose petals for best flavor.
- This syrup is perfect for cocktails, lemonades, iced teas, or drizzling over desserts.
- For a stronger rose flavor, steep petals longer before straining.
