Servings: 0
Ingredients
- *1 pint Mason jar
- *Fresh wild or domestic rose petals to fill your jar make sure they have not been sprayed!
- *a little less than 1 pint of good quality brandy I used an apple brandy made by a local vineyard; vodka willl also work
- *approximately 1/3 pint of raw honey more if you are using only honey and no alcohol
Instructions
- 1. Fill your jar with fresh rose petals. They don't have to be packed down, but they should fill the jar so that there isn't a lot of empty space.
- 2. If you don't have enough rose petals to fill the jar, you could add some bee balm petals, chopped fresh ginger, zest of orange, lime, or lemon, etc.
- 3. Next, add honey to coat the rose petals and fill about 1/3 of the jar. Add brandy or other alcohol to the top of the jar. Place plastic wrap over the top and then screw on your metal lid.
