Strawberry Rose Water Mojito Recipe

Strawberry Rose Water Mojito RecipeI’m so glad that the weather is heating up and that we can spend more time outdoors. We love to invite friends & family over during the summertime and cook & entertain outdoors. When we host “adult only” gatherings, we love to serve some fruity cocktails like the one we are featuring today here on the blog.

The cocktail recipe is courtesy of Nielsen-Massey and features their brand new Rose Water as an ingredient. Rose Water from Nielsen-Massey is an elegant steam distillate of rose petals. With multiple uses around the home, in recipes, and as part of a regular beauty regimen, Rose Water is the perfect way to welcome summer’s traditional outdoor fun and opportunities for relaxation.

Nielsen-Massey Strawberry-Rose Syrup

  1. The Nielsen-Massey Rose Water is something I’d like to try. I can’t wait to see what I come up with using their chocolate extract. I’ll have to look again at all those great recipes on their site.

  2. I enjoy rose water and I know I’d like this drink. I’d just make it without the rum.

  3. I have never tried a mojito but I think I would like it. This recipe sounds super refreshing and relaxing and one I have to try for a summer get together. The recipe looks nice and easy and one I can follow thanks for sharing this one and hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend.

    I did not know that Nielsen-Massey makes a rose water. I shall have to order it and try it in different recipes, not just in drinks. This mojito drink should be delicious.

  5. These drinks are so pretty and sound soo good! I’ve never tried rose water or rose syrup – I must try this! It would be perfect for so many occasions!
