Rose Petal Honey
Not many people think of roses as an edible treat, but I love the subtle flavor of rose petals in this Rose Petal Honey. To make this honey, you will only need 5 ingredients – rose petals, water, lemon juice, sugar and pectin.
Start by combining rose petals, water and lemon juice and bring to a boil. Once the petals lose their color, strain the mixture and reserve the liquid. Discard the petals and stir in sugar to the liquid. Bring to a boil and stir in pectin. Pour into a jar and cool to room temperature before covering and chilling in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
To make Rose Petal Honey, you will need the following ingredients:

Recipe Reviews
Best spread you can make yourself honestly.
Lemon juice kinda makes it zesty so i'd add only one tbsp instead of two if you don't want it to be sour.
I used this on my rose petal cookies they combo perfectly.
Goes great in some tea even better than honey but not as sweet so if you like sweet things stick to honey.
Nicely done! Vegan, gluten free and lactose free honey it's like everything everyone wants right now in 2020 lol.
Easy and fun to make I have roses growing in my area and wasnt too sure what to do with them up until now :)
Would recommend this if you're looking for something creative to make this is it.
What is the fruit pectin and where can I buy it?
Loved everything about this I use it often for my bread in the mornings too.
