Warnings

• • Blood sugar warning: Due to its high sugar content, it may cause sudden fluctuations in blood sugar levels; therefore, it is recommended to consume it alongside a source of protein or fat, such as a piece of cheese.
• • Bitterness (White Part): The white bases of the rose petals can impart a bitter taste to the syrup; these white parts should be trimmed off with scissors during preparation.
• • Storage conditions: Natural rose syrups, which lack additives or preservatives, should not be left at room temperature but must be stored properly (e.g., refrigerated).
• • Consumption period: It is generally recommended to consume the syrup within 4 days of opening the package or lid.
• • Fermentation: A slightly sour taste or mild fermentation (such as foaming) may occur in preservative-free syrups; individuals with sensitive stomachs should be mindful of this.
