Total Time 12 hours 35 minutes
Servings 1 portion

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups (3 deciliters) fresh wild rose petals, densely packed
  • 2 cups (400 grams) sugar
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 ½ cups (6 deciliters) water

Instructions

  • Pick the wild rose petals from a non-polluted area.
  • Inspect each petal for bugs and dirt and do not rinse or soak the petals in water.
  • Place sugar, apple cider vinegar, and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Let simmer for 20-30 minutes depending on how thick you want the syrup. The longer you let it simmer, the thicker it will be.
  • Turn off the stove and remove from heat. Add the rose petals to the hot syrup and stir.
  • Pour the wild rose syrup into a sterilized jar/bottle and let it steep for 12 hours in the fridge.
  • You can leave the rose petals in the syrup for a few weeks, but I would recommend removing them after that.
