Removing rose petals

Working over a bowl, take the petals off of three roses. I chose organic roses to promote healthy scalp and skin.  

Mixing in the jasmine

Preparing to simmer mixture

7. Prepare to simmer

Put the pot cover on upside down. Put the pot of petals and water onto a burner on your stovetop.


Put the burner on low. The flame should not reach the top of the pot. 

Adding ice cubes

8. Add ice cubes

Add ice cubes in the middle of the upside-down lid that’s sitting on the pot. Keep the pot on the stove with the low flame. The ice cubes will speed up condensation inside the pot. 

Slow boiling the mixture

9. Slow boil

By now, the petals and water inside the pot should be slowly boiling. 

Removing the lid

10. Remove lid

Once you see that the smaller pot on the inside is filled with water, remove the lid from the larger pot.


Carefully remove the smaller pot from the larger pot. 

Allowing mixture to cool

11. Cool

Let the pot cool down.

Transferring the water

12. Transfer the water

Once the water is cool, pour it into a small glass bottle with a mister.
