yes and no Shirley, depends how much you make.
I did it in a le parfait jar (wide neck is needed)
I used an old english rose called chianti, its' dark and has very 'rose' smelling flowers
I filled half the jar with petals then topped it up with vodka, left it in a dark place till the colour had gone from petals, squished gently the petals in strainer to save a much vodka as possible and put in fresh lot of petals.
Squished again. got rid of petals.
Added lots of sugar and left it as long as possible- about two days - rude not to try it I thought! still have some left almost 11 months on! it's still lovely.
I will make more this year :-) |
