Rose Sugar Recipe
2 cups Organic Sugar
1 teaspoon Rose Extract
2 tbl finely crushed Culinary Rose Petals
1 large glass jar for mixing/storage approx 16 oz
2 tbl finely crushed Culinary Rose Petals
1 large glass jar for mixing/storage approx 16 oz
1. In a glass jar add 2 cups of sugar and 2 tbl of Rose Extract .
2. Stir.
3. Crush the rose petals into very fine pieces. Remember you'll be adding this to hot and cold tea and to the rim of champagne or a Rose Martini and you want the petals to be a gentle embellishment...so crush on.
Add the rose petals to the mix and stir.
4. Allow to sit for 2 days or more. Mix again before using or bottling. This blend will yield (4) 4 oz bottles.
I love these 4 oz ball jars I found and I've left a link for you below. I sent these out with Christmas gifts this past season.
Perfect gift for your tea loving friends or for Valentine's Day. Just add a package of their favorite tea and watch them swoon. Great giveaway or hostess gift for a tea party too.
I have to say this pairs well with lavender tea and mint tea . Hot or cold.

Rose Martini Recipe
Add your "Homemade Rose Sugar" to the rim of your glass. Just dip the rim in a plate of water then dip it in a plate of rose sugar. How romantic along the rim of a champagne glass.
Mix /Shake
1 cup of ice
1 oz of Vodka or Gin
1 oz of Coconut Water (it's light enough to allow the rose to come through)
1 tsp of Monin Rose Syrup or 1/2 tsp or Rose Water flavoring
With love and gratitude,
