How to Make a Hot Rose Latte?
For this recipe, you only need a few basic tools, your favorite milk, and a good rose syrup. So here are the steps:
Total Time 7 minutes mins
Espresso machine, moka pot, or coffee maker
Milk frother, small saucepan, or microwave-safe jar
Measuring Spoons:
Heat-safe mug
- Rose syrup (homemade or store-bought)
- Espresso or strong brewed coffee
- Milk of choice (dairy, oat, almond, etc.)
- Optional: dried rose petals, a drop of vanilla extract, or a pinch of cardamom
Step 1) Brew the Espresso: Use 1–2 shots of espresso, or about ½ cup of strong brewed coffee if you don’t have an espresso setup. A moka pot or even instant espresso powder can work in a pinch.
Step 2) Steam or Heat the Milk: Warm about ¾ cup of milk until hot but not boiling. Next, froth it using a handheld frother, whisk, or by shaking in a jar (then microwaving to heat if needed).
Step 3) Add Rose Syrup and Assemble: Stir 1–2 tablespoons of rose syrup into the espresso. Afterward, pour your steamed milk over it, holding back the foam with a spoon, then spoon the foam on top if you’ve got some. You can garnish with a few dried rose petals if you’re feeling fancy.
