DIY Rose Water

This is the simplest thing to make at home: rose water. Note: this is not the same as rose hydrosol is typically reffered to as rose water. It's made during steam distillation, and it has more benefits than this recipe. My skin absolutely loves this rose water, so I make sure to utilize the free roses outside and have fresh rose water 4-5 months out of the year!

some recipes say just collect as many petals as you want, then fully cover with water. I typically do a 1:1 ratio of water to petals. As you will see, my rose water gained more color as it cooled. The color of your water depends on the roses used, any kind will work!

This stays good in the fridge for up to a month, some recipes say to add 1/4 tsp of alcohol to make it last months but I have never tried this.
