3 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups spring water
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup rosewater
1/2 teaspoon red food coloring
Iced spring water
1 In a small nonreactive pan, stir the sugar, water and lemon juice together over medium heat, until the sugar dissolves and the syrup is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 3 to 5 minutes.
2 Add the rosewater and food coloring and stir well for another 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the syrup into a bottle with a cap and allow to cool to room temperature.
3 To serve, mix the desired amount of syrup with the ice-cold spring water in a pitcher. (Usually about one third syrup to two thirds water, but you should decide for yourself) Serve in tall glasses over ice.

I think this would be something good to have at a tea party. You can make it any shade of pink to red, it looks so lovely in a nice glass. The recipe came from Please to the Table also.
