Rose Vodka Spritzer- Recipe

Start your #FlowerCocktailHour with this Rose Vodka Spritzer…

Here’s how to create Rose Infused Vodka:

Place One Liter of Organic Potato Vodka into a large closed glass decanter with a wide mouth.

Add the petals only from 5-6 Blooms from Fragrant *Organic Garden Roses- Be sure that any roses used in this recipe have not been treated with chemicals and are completely organic.

*It is suggested to grown your own roses so that you can govern their treatment and insure they are completely organic!

Continue to add roses- over the course of a 6 week period of time… 1-2 blooms each week. The Darker the color of the rose… the more color your vodka will obtain.

Keep the decanter in a COOL- DARK Place to preserve the color of the mixture.

Created on J Schwanke’s Life in Bloom with guest Chef Jenna.

After 6 weeks remove the rose petals and strain the mixture through cheese cloth and funnel into a bottle- (Hint- using reclaimed or recycled liquor bottles is a great way to ‘package’ your Rose infused Vodka.

How to create Organic Honey Simple Syrup:

Add 1/2 cup of Honey to 2 cups of Distilled water. Boil mixture in a pan for about 3 minutes… watching carefully so it doesn’t boil over. Cool mixture and place in a mason jar with sealed lid. Store refrigerated until needed. Use mixture within 3 months.
