Ingredients

Granulated sugar

canning jars & lids

aromatic edibles such as scented geranium leaves, mint leaves, rose petals, citrus peel (orange, lemon, lime, grapefruit, etc.), or vanilla beans.

NOTE: BE SURE THE PLANTS HAVE NOT BEEN SPRAYED WITH CHEMICALS!

If using citrus peels, first set out for a day to dry.

Directions

Mix small batches.

Layer granulated sugar with the aromatic edibles of your choice till jar is filled.

Tightly seal the jars.

Let sit for a few days while the scents infuse the sugars.

One jar or a trio makes an unusual gift for someone who could use a little sweetness.

Also a delicate & lovely topping for sugar cookies or piecrust for a subtle flavor!
