How to Make Rose Petal Iced Tea

  1. In a medium saucepan, gently combine 4 cups of water and 1/4 cup of sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
  2. Add 1/4 cup of dried rose petals (or 1 cup of fresh rose petals). Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the rose petals to infuse their fragrant oils into the water.
  4. Remove from heat and let the tea steep for an additional 5 minutes.
  5. Strain the tea through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a pitcher, pressing gently on the rose petals to extract all the flavorful liquid.
  6. Allow the tea to cool completely before adding 4 cups of ice.
  7. Stir in the juice of 1/2 a lemon for a hint of citrusy brightness.
  8. Serve chilled and garnish with fresh rose petals and a lemon wedge for an elegant touch.
