   Amount Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
    2       c            Rose Petals
    4       c            Sugar
                         Juice Of One Lemon
    2       tb           Rum

   Pick the petals over, removing any debris, leaves,
   stamens or insects. Coarsely chop 1 cup of petals in a
   processor then add 1 cup of sugar and half of the
   lemon juice, 1 Tb of rum, and another cup of sugar.
   Mix for a minute, scraping the sides of the processor
   bowl. Repeat with the rest of the petals and other
   ingredients. Pack into small jars (about 1 cup),
   rapping lightly to release air bubbles. Cover and
   keep in a cool place.

   NOTE:

   This will last up to a year. It is used sparingly, so
   small jars are practical.
