rose syrup

Spread the love

Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 1 liter of water
  • 1 kg sugar
  • 1 liter of flowers and leaves, unsprayed from fragrant roses
  • 2 lemons, unsprayed
  • 1 tbsp lemon(s) – acid

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Boil the water and sugar until the sugar has dissolved. Let it cool. Place the rose petals in a large jar. Wash the lemons with hot water and slice them. Add the lemon slices and the sugar solution. Cover and let it steep in a cool place for about 6-7 days. Then filter and pour into well-rinsed, oven-dried, and preferably still-warm bottles. Caution! Watch out for the lemon slices; they tend to mold if the leaves steep for too long, and then you’ll just have to throw the whole thing away. The darker the rose, the darker the syrup will be, but even pink roses contain a considerable amount of coloring. The syrup tastes great in sparkling wine, as a parfait, or in a cream.
