you can still use that! rose tea ice cubes

Posted on | September 30, 2008 |

fragrant and soothing, rose tea is delicious to drink but the beautiful rosebuds are all too often discarded without ever being seen because they are enclosed in an opaque bag.

look at how gorgeous the buds are!

i wondered how i could reuse these lovely nature bits after making tea with them.

one way is to freeze them in ice cubes! then, when you have guests, serve them chilled green tea with the contrasting deep pink rosebuds floating on top:

another way would be to dry them out and top cakes with them or float them in clear pink jello.
