rose petal maceration
Liqueurs and aperitifs have a bad name because the commoditized ones are loaded with sugar, largely to conceal harsh alcohol: Gran Marnier is somewhere above 30% sugar, Kahlua around 45%. If you use good alcohol or, better, great alcohol, you can use way less sugar and get a drink that showcases the ingredients, be they fresh-picked rose petals or Seville orange peels from Curaçao or Burundi Shamba arabica coffee beans.
