Fun In The Kitchen! Let's Make Rose Water!

1. Gather fresh rose petals (free from pesticides and chemicals), and wash them in a bowl to remove any dirt or residue. I use 6-7 average sized roses.

2. Place cleaned Rose Petals in a pot and add just enough water to cover the petals.

3. Over medium heat bring the pot to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and cover

4. Let simmer for 30-40 minutes or until petals have lost their color and are pale pink. You should notice oils on the surface of the water.

5. Strain mixture into a jar, separating the petals from the water mixture.

6. YOU JUST MADE ROSE WATER!!

7. Discard rose petals and store Rose Water in an air tight jar in the refrigerator for up to 4 months or until it looks murky.
