Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Floral Sweetener.
Step 1
Start by pouring 2 1/2 cups of water into a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Add in 10 cups of white sugar and 1 teaspoon of alum. Place the saucepan over high heat and bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let it simmer for about 10 minutes. Keep an eye on the surface and skim off any scum that forms, ensuring a clear syrup.
Step 2
After 10 minutes, remove the syrup from the heat. Now, it’s time to infuse it with nature’s beauty! Stir in 18 red clover blossoms, 36 white clover blossoms, and 18 rose petals. Allow this floral mixture to steep for 10 minutes, letting the flavors meld beautifully. Once steeped, give it a gentle stir and strain the syrup into clean storage jars, capturing all the lovely essence of the flowers.
