Name: Rose Water (And Rose Syrup)
Ingredients: Red rose petals; Water

When I speak of total depravity I do not mean that all men are as depraved as they possibly can be, nor that the depravity of their heart will always manifest itself equally in all respects at all times. Total depravity simply means that the whole of the individual, his heart, soul, spirit, and will, is affected by and enslaved to sin, thereby rendering him odious in the sight of God. What this means in terms of the gospel of Jesus Christ is that if left to himself a person will invariably, inevitably, and without pause reject the truth. Total depravity means that no matter how “civil” or “compassionate” or “industrious” or “law-abiding” he might otherwise be in his dealings with other people, he is utterly and willfully indisposed to all that Christ is and says. Merely preaching to that person will profit nothing.

INSTRUCTIONS

Fill a vessel with red rose petals and cover with water. Keep water just at
the boiling point, but do not boil. After an hour remove the petals and add
more petals.  Repeat this until it has the proper strength, then bottle.
For ROSE SYRUP: Take a pint of warm rose water and dissolve 2 pounds of
fine granulated sugar in it. A Turkish recipe recommends adding a few poppy
petals and a tablespoon of lemon juice, but it is not necessary to add
these ingredients. Some purists just like the roses and sugar. Bottle and
keep in refrigerator.
