This syrup makes plain pancakes or waffles into a gourmet treat. It's also wonderful drizzled on ice cream, cheesecake, or simple cakes. I've even put a spoonful into a glass of lemonade or club soda which makes a beautiful rosy, refreshing drink.

FRESH FLOWER/HERB SYRUP

This is a traditional family recipe that I would like to keep as this syrup is really delicious and fresh. Usually I use bee balm flowers. This latin name of this herb is Monarda didyma. Other names: bergamot herb, scarlet beebalm, scarlet monarda, Oswego tea, or crimson beebalm. The same recipe is also applicable for flowers such as elder, honeysuckles, hibiskus, scented geraniums, violets, rose petals, pansies, citrus, lavender, basil. You can prepare this with different herbs too such as mint, sage, rosemary and much more.

FRESH FLOWER/HERB BLOSSOM ICE CUBES FOR SUMMERTIME ENTERTAINING

Dress up your drinks with these beautiful and romantic ice cubes featuring blossoms from the garden! Perfect for summer afternoon parties or cocktail events! Pink or red rose petals will enhance any drink, and can also be sprinkled on the table and over desserts for a romantic effect. Or, use fresh herbs. Flowers and leaves that are suitable include: scented geraniums, nasturtiums, violets, rose petals, pansies, lavender, basil, chive/leek/onion/garlic blossoms, borage flowers, and most flowers from edible herbs (e.g. basil, oregano, thyme). Note: Boiling the water before freezing will ensure that the ice cubes are crystal clear.

Fresh Flower/Herb Blossom Ice Cubes for Summertime Entertaining image

Steps:

  • Gather and gently rinse all of your pesticide-free blossoms.
  • Boil water for 2 minutes for all the air trapped in the water to escape. Then leave to cool till room temperature. This will ensure that the ice cubes are crystal clear.
  • Place each blossom at the base of each individual compartment within an ice tray (or more trays if you have a large party).
  • Fill each compartment half full with the cooled boiled water and freeze.
  • After the water is frozen solid, fill each ice cube compartment the rest of the way to the top with the remaining boiled water.
  • Refreeze and allow it to remain in the freezer until you are ready to use them (store in the freezer in zip lock bags).
  • NOTE: You can also freeze a large ice ring for the punch bowl, with a variety of blossoms. Don't use the glass punchbowl or it will expand and burst in the freezer. Instead, use a ring-shaped cake tin and fill it with flowers and water. Follow the same procedure as above (filling halfway, then freezing), but you can add additional blossoms to the second layer so that the blossoms are throughout the large ice ring.
  • Use the ice cubes in pitchers or glasses of lemonade, iced tea, juices, punches and cocktails.

CUT FLOWER PRESERVATIVE #1

I stumbled across this recipe for making your own flower preservative on About.com today. TIPS: To keep your cut flowers fresh you need to give them water and food, protect them from decay or infection, plus keep them cool and out of direct sunlight. Try to keep your flowers away from ripe fruit as the gases will shorten their life. Keep them in a cool area and away from direct sunlight. Flowers with milky latex-containing sap such as poinsettia, heliotrope, hollyhock, euphorbia and poppies need special treatment. The milky sap prevents water loss by the stem but in cut flowers it prevents the absorption of water. To prevent this problem dip the bottom tips (1/2 inch) of the stems in boiling water for about 30 seconds, or by flashing the tips of the stems with a lighter or other flame.

Cut Flower Preservative #1 image

Steps:

  • Discard decaying leaves and flowers and any foliage which would be below the water line, plus any unnecessary leaves.
  • Trim bottom ends of flower stems by cutting on an angle to maximize the surface area for water and to prevent the ends from resting flat on the bottom of the vase.
  • Mix lemon-lime beverage, bleach, and warm water. Be sure to use warm water (100-110 degrees Fahrenheit or 38-40 Celsius). It will move up the stems more effectively than cold water; add flowers.

2 cups carbonated lemon-lime beverage, such as Sprite, 7-Up
1/2 teaspoon bleach, household
2 cups warm water (tap water is okay but if it is high in salts and fluorides distilled is better)
