All of the above mentioned places are good, even Hispanic or Puerto Rican markets, you can make your own, by steeping rose petals in alcohol, not the kind you use for medical reasons, vodka is a substitute.





Just make sure the roses have not been sprayed with any kind of pestisides, ask at the place you purchase them, you only need a 1/2 dozen, and then put the petals only in a jar, cover with about 2 cups of alcohol, steep for about 2 weeks in a dark cool place, then strain, the liquid, and if your using it for baking or dessert, boil 2 cups of sugar with 1 cup of water to make a simple syrup and add the strained liquid, this can be keep in the frig and used for your cooking or baking needs, try to make Turkish Delight with it, it is very nice

The rose petals you better grow your own as those from florists' may have pesticides.
