Servings: 16 oz
Equipment
- Spray bottle (16 oz)
- Strainer
Ingredients
- Approximately 3 rose flowers or 1 cup of rose petals
- 3 cups of water
Instructions
- Remove the petals from the stems and wash thoroughly to remove any debris.
- Add the petals to a small saucepan and cover with water.
- Cover and bring the water to a simmer (not quite a boil), then reduce the heat to a simmer.
- Simmer for 30 minutes (until the petals lose their color)
- Remove the rose water from the heat and allow it to cool to room temperature. You can remove the lid to speed up the process.
- Strain the rose water and transfer it to an airtight spray bottle.
- Store in the refrigerator.
Notes
- Use rose water on your hair at least twice weekly for best results.
- It’s essential to pick organic rose petals that are free from pesticides. An easy rule of thumb is to choose roses with a strong scent and a vibrant color – both are indicators of their freshness.
- Rose water must be kept in the fridge at all times and should last up to one month if the lid is screwed on tightly after each use.
