Notes

For a kid-approved version of this refreshing drink, consider reducing the rose syrup to make it less sweet. You can also introduce a splash of apple or orange juice to the mix, adding a familiar fruity flavor that kids love. Serve in fun glasses with colorful straws and perhaps a slice of orange or apple as garnish to make it visually appealing for the little ones.
