If you’re looking for a romantic cocktail, look no further! It doesn’t get more romantic than this unique and delicious, Rose Water Gin Cocktail!
We love making cocktails and we’re smitten over this 3 ingredient rose water cocktail. Each of the flavors are all very present in the cocktail and it’s a light and refreshing drink.
To get the floral and rosy flavor, we used rose water to create rosewater simple syrup! Simple syrup is a diluted sweetener and very simple (hence the name) to make! See step by step on making a simple syrup.
How to Make Rose Water Simple Syrup
- The rose water simple syrup is easy to make!
- Just simmer 1 cup sugar and 1 cup water in a small pot until the sugar dissolves.
- Remove and let it cool
- Add in 1 teaspoon of rose water… we used this one, which is great!
We also have a great guide to making simple syrups you can check out here!
