    • Hi Cattie – Preshana responded as follows:
      1. Omit the orange blossom water and increase the rose water to 1 1/2 tablespoons.
      2. If you’re unable to get orange blosssom or rose water: Use vanilla essence but reduce the amount by half (of the amount of rose water)
      Hope this will help.
