👨‍🍳 Method

For the Sugar Syrup

1. 1
   Bring the fruit and sugar to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer 10 minutes, until the sugar melts and the syrup thickens slightly.

   💡A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.
2. 2
   Add the rose water.

To assemble

1. 3
   Dissolve the cornstarch ½ cup of the cold the milk, until no lumps remain.

   💡The starch is dissolved in cold liquid and added to the hot milk slowly, while whisking: dry starch in hot milk sets into lumps.
2. 4
   In a pot, heat the rest of the milk with the sugar, until just before boiling.
