Tips:
- Rose water does not need to be refrigerated. It will retain its floral aroma best when stored in a cool, dry place. Pure distilled rose water has a long shelf life, but if you’re worried, give it a taste before you cook with it.
- Typically the shelf life of an opened store-bought rose water can last up to 2 years.
