Notes

  • The simple syrup can be made up to 1 month in advance and stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
  • You can use a milk frother to make a creamy foam before you add it to the mug. However, this is optional. Here is the milk frother used. https://bit.ly/41u8MJy
  • You can heat the coconut milk in a small saucepan on the stovetop or in the microwave.
  • If you have rose water (instead of dried rose petals), you can substitute the rose water for the water in the homemade simple syrup. Here is the rose water that I used for this recipe. 
  • Here are the dried rose petals that I used for this recipe. 
  • To make iced rose latte, make the simple syrup as instructed. Let the tea and syrup cool to at least room temperature. Fill glass with ice then pour rose syrup, beet powder and coconut milk over the ice into the glass.
  • I used the Hibiscus Tea from Pique. However, you can use whatever brand you prefer. Please note that the Pique tea included licorice root which is an AIP reintroduction.
  • There are lots of options for beet powder. You can find it in the supplement section of Sprouts or online. 
  • The beet powder is optional as the hibiscus tea is also pink.
  • You can make this sugar free by omitting the honey in the simple syrup and replacing it with additional water and then increasing the rose petals to 1/4 cup. Without honey you’re essentially making plain rose water.
  • If you’re using rose buds, you’ll need to chop them up.
