Rose Petal Preserve

Rose Petal Preserve can be added to milk or to sweet lassi to make a delicious summertime drink. Try these recipes.  Rose Petal Milk 1 cup milk1 tsp. Rose Petal Preserve

Be sure to boil the milk and let it cool before adding the conserve. Boiling the milk makes it more digestible, but if it’s too hot when you add the conserve, it will destroy the rose’s delicate properties. You can drink this before bed to help balance Sadhaka Pitta and produce a more restful, sweeter, deeper sleep. Sweet Rose Petal Lassi 3 parts water1 part freshly made yogurt1 heaping tsp. Rose Petal Preserve

Blend together for a soothing summer drink,or to pacify Pitta all year round. Rose Petal Thirst Quencher If you are feeling the effects of the hot summer sun, have to skip a meal for some reason, or naturally have Pitta dosha predominating, it can be challenging to keep cool.
