    This Homemade Rose Simple Syrup is easy to make and can be added to so many things. It is the perfect addition to lemonade for a pretty pink color and to balance out the lemon juice. Add it to tea, pancakes, cold drinks, or desserts.

    It also works in a rose latte, which is my favorite way to use it. It has the perfect balance of flavors, with the floral taste being nice and subtle.

    It adds a floral note to cocktails and baked goods such as cakes or cookies.

    Recipes with edible flowers have been my latest obsession. I've made lattes, kombucha, and simple syrup with them. Other floral simple syrup recipes to try are my Elderflower Simple Syrup recipe and Lavender Simple Syrup recipe.

    Some drinks to try are my Iced Lavender Matcha Latte recipe and Lavender Lemonade recipe.
