Preparation

18 mins

Low

We start by placing the previously washed rose petals in a saucepan with 1/2 liter of water and sugar over moderate heat, and once it reaches a boil, we count 18 minutes, the saucepan should remain covered. Once the time has passed, remove from heat and add the drops of orange blossom water, stir a little, and let it rest until the next day. The next day, add the rum or aguardiente, mix well, and let it rest for two more days. After two days, strain the preparation through a cloth filter, bottle it, and let it macerate for a month. Be sure to seal the bottle very well and protect it from the sun and heat. After a month, it is ready to drink.

Tips

Some macerate the rose petals directly in the rum and two weeks later is when they add the other ingredients, and it makes sense since the common principle of liqueurs is the maceration of the product in alcohol.
