Rose Petal Syrup | Erica Robbin
Lightly rosy and perfect over vanilla ice cream.
My sister grew some beautiful edible tea roses that smell so fragrant and looked so gorgeous as she gave them to me in a vase. I admired them just until they were about to turn and thought, maybe I would like to try making a recipe out of them. I’ve never cooked rose petals before, so here it is, rose petal syrup. It’s so delicate, with hints of rose and pairs so well with vanilla ice cream.
