Wild Rose Sugar (Beach Rose Sugar)

wild rose sugar

Wild rose sugar has a beautiful pink color, and it both smells and tastes wonderfully of roses and summer.

Foraging for wild roses and making them into sweet aromatic sugar is an amazing summer activity. When mixing sugar with the stunning wild rose petals, it becomes a glittery, pink sugar. The sugar can be used on top of berries, ice cream, pancakes, in tea, as a rim of rose sugar around your cocktail glass, or however you would use sugar normally.

For this recipe, you would need to forage for pink wild roses with the Latin name “Rosa Rugosa”. Other wild roses can be used as well, but this is my favorite rose to use.
