Have you tried using google to find the answer?

AYou can just buy rose water. Making it from scratch is not worth it.

It is much easier to purchase it. I am a "full-blooded do-it-yourselfer" who loves to do things from scratch. That being said, a number of years ago I purchased a small still as part of a "make my own perfume" phase. Well, I learned really quickly that it took more rose petals than my whole rose garden had to distill rose essence.  I ended up putting the still aside and just made rose beads. They made a lovely, fragrant necklace, but for the Turkish Delight I was making, I ended up using commercial rose water.

AOrder it online, it's not that easy to find in stores anymore.

Try an Indian or asian supermarket ..

If you can't find it locally, here is the source I've used:

Most sri lankan/Indian grocery stores will have  rosewater essence/flavouring. (star brand). you also get the "queens" brand rosewater in the super markets in the isle where they sell cake ingredients, colouring etc.

Aalso persian(iranian) stores

Amazon.com carries it, too.
