RECPE FOR ROSE WATER
If using fresh petals, use cold water. If using dried petals, use hot water.
Pick enough petals to fill a jar of your choosing ensuring that the roses have not been sprayed or damaged. Fill the jar with water and a small dash of vodka. Put on the lid and leave to stand for three days. Shake the jar occasionally. After three days, strain out the rose petals and decant the water into your final container. The water should smell of roses. Add a couple of drops of Rose essential oil to preserve and that's it. I made a lot last year and kept the excess in the fridge, topping up my bathroom bottle as needed.

Thank you 🙏 My mother told me how her grandmother, who was from Kerry, would make rose water and put it on handkerchiefs. She would lay it on my mother’s forehead when she had to go down for a nap time in the summer.

I think the rose water you can buy in the store is made by distillation. It's probably a bit stronger than an rose infusion.

Oh I so wish I had a real garden, but I'm an urban dweller; roses don't like my apartment. I do manage to grow lots of other things, though, and thank goodness I can get food grade rosewater at a nearby store for a reasonable price. I splash it on my face every morning, just before the morning cuppa something. Thank you for the little mental "vacation"! (PS love that green dress!)

@@DanusIrishHerbGarden Hi Terri. I'm new to this, but it seems there are many different ways. Apparently it can take weeks to establish if there is enough colour in the leaves, and from what i can read, the time of year is important too. I think I may be trying too soon, as most websites say from August to October, But, basically, you pick the leaves, chop them and add them to boiling water, for around ten minutes. I have done this today, expecting the water to turn blue, but I believe you have to put the liquid in a kilner jar, and wait for it to slowly turn,,,I'll let you know. :):) xx
