You could also add a bit of coconut milk to this recipe to make it a bit more satiating.

Preparation steps

1.

Rinse the lemon in hot water, wipe dry and zest thinly. Squeeze the juice and let both boil with the sugar and 1 cup water. Simmer about 5 minutes, remove from the heat and stir in the rose water. Allow to cool completely in the refrigerator.

2.

Spread half of the flower petals into ice cube trays. Pour in some of the syrup and mineral water about halfway up the cubes. Freeze for about 2 hours. Fill with the remaining flowers, syrup, and mineral water. Freeze for about 1 hour.

Insert popsicle sticks and completely freeze, at least 3 hours.
