In this Post: Everything you need for Frozen Lemonade with Rose Water

Growing up, my mom and aunts would always flavor lemonade with a splash of orange blossom or rose water. Popular in Middle Eastern cuisine, these all-natural flavor enhancers are nothing more than water steeped with either orange blossoms or rose petals.

To this day, lemonade just isn’t lemonade without a hint of orange blossom water or rose water. The floral aroma pairs perfectly with the sweet and tangy lemonade. You’ll also see these waters used frequently to flavor desserts such as baklava or even hard candies.

  1. I currently live in the Middle East and have bottles of rosewater and orange blossom water in my kitchen and bathroom. I am obsessed with rosewater lemonade, but it always seems that it tastes better when other people make it. This is a different recipe than that one that I’ve made, so I’m excited to try it. Thanks!

  2. I’m loving this idea of adding flower water to lemonade—what a unique twist! I’m definitely going to try this one for the 4th!

  3. On this hot day nothing sounds better then frozen lemonade with rose water! I’m sure a big gulp would make baby happy in my belly! Thank you for showering me. Wish I could get you mamas together! xo Catherine

  4. This lemonade sounds very nice – I like the idea of a touch of floral flavor to go with the lemon. Also love that your nails match the lemonade… :-)

  5. Oh my gosh… I am seriously loving this recipe and your pictures!! I want this immediately. And then I am going to need you to come over and drink them with me, mkay?
