Rose wine is an aromatic wine based on rose petals and spirit (usually sorghum wine). It has a subtle rose aroma and sweet taste and is used to make a variety of cocktails and mixers. Some say it tastes like sweet, floral vodka. Can also be used for cooking. Drinking types usually have an alcohol content of over 50%, while culinary varieties are made from rice and may have a lower alcohol content of around 18%.
The process of making rose wine typically involves steeping fresh rose petals or rose petal extract in the spirit, allowing it to release the aroma and flavor into the liquid. The wine may then need to sit for a while to allow the aroma to fully soak in. Finally, strain and season as desired.

You could substitute Shaoxing wine (which you probably already have on hand since we use it in so many of our recipes), but the dish won’t have the complex flavor that rose wine brings.
