Rose-Thyme-Syrup - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    700 ml water
    100 g demerara sugar
    190 g gelling sugar
    8 g vanilla sugar
    10 g citric acid
    dried rose petals (3 handfuls)
    17 g fresh thyme
    2 rock sugar (optional)
Preparation
    Bring the water, (gelling) sugar and dried rose petals to boil and let simmer for a few minutes on low heat, add the vanilla sugar and citric acid and stir repeatedly.
    Then add the fresh thyme and let stand for about 25 minutes. Depending on the desired intensity, you can steep the thyme longer, but if you let it steep for too long, then the sirup could get too acerbic.
    If the syrup is to sour for you, then add the rock sugar.
