Made with just five ingredients—granulated sugar, water, rose water, lemon juice, and an optional hint of red food coloring—this syrup comes together in under 10 minutes. The floral aroma of rose water pairs beautifully with a subtle citrus tang from the lemon juice, creating a perfectly balanced syrup ideal for sweetening tea, drizzling over pancakes, or adding a unique twist to cocktails.

In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir the mixture until the sugar has completely dissolved. This should take about 2–3 minutes.
Once the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is clear, remove the saucepan from heat.
Stir in the rose water, lemon juice, and the optional drop of red food coloring. Adjust the rose water quantity to your desired level of fragrance.
Allow the syrup to cool completely at room temperature before transferring it to a clean, sterilized bottle or jar.
Store the rose water syrup in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Use as a topping for pancakes, ice cream, or cakes, or mix it into beverages for a floral touch.
