ماء الورد

The steam distillation really captures the rose petals' essence—one tiny drop in a batch of yogurt was intensely floral without being soapy. I've used it in both a rice pudding and a lemonade, and the fragrance stays delicate on the palate, never cloying.

I've been adding just a few drops to my lemonade and it tastes like I'm sipping a garden in summer. The floral sweetness is delicate, not at all soapy like some other extracts I've tried. Perfect for giving simple desserts an elegant twist.

The scent is so true to real rose petals, not artificial at all. I used just a few drops in some rice pudding and the whole kitchen smelled amazing.
