Thanks for sharing those instructions, I do have a question though. Lots of people say that when you cook vegetables, you destroy all the vitamin C from the heat. How is the vitamin C in rosehips different so that it does not get destroyed when it is cooked like this? Obviously it must not be if this prevented scurvy, I just don't understand.

No worries :)

Cooking can destroy 15 to 55% of the vitamin C, so I guess Rosehips have enough in them to make it worthwhile. It's also water soluble, so it easily gets into the syrup :)

My mom loves roses, when I think of roses they make me think of her: Elegant, passionate, bright, and brilliant.
