Come to think of it, this Syrup is extremely easy, uses only 3 ingredients and best of all - stays good for months! And the very fact that you made it gives you the confidence to serve it to even the most dearest ones with pride! It may not be as Red as store-bought but trust me, the taste and aroma is simply intoxicating. I've not added any colour or colouring agent into this recipe for a simple reason that I wanted it to be all-roses and natural.
