Instructions:
1. Soak bulgur overnight in plenty of water.

2. Add 4 cups of water to bulgur and cook on medium heat, stirring frequently, for approximately 20 min or until wheat doesn’t taste ‘raw’.

3. Pass mixture through a sieve to obtain liquid. Let it thoroughly drain through.

4. Add sugar and stir until dissolved.

* Tip: Add more water depending upon how thick the mixture is. Add enough to make it an appealing consistency for you to drink.

5. Cover and set aside for approximately 3 days, or until bubbles form on top.

6. Stir in rose water.

7. Serve cold in mugs topped with cinnamon.

8. Enjoy!

* Tip: Keep mixture refrigerated once ready.
