Ingredient Notes
You just need 4 simple ingredients to make this hibiscus rose latte!
Hibiscus Rose Tea - There are so many options for tea that you can use! You can simply use a combination of dried hibiscus flowers and rose petals; you can use a pre-made tea blend, or your favorite bagged tea!
Rose Water - If you use tea that contains rose, you can omit the rose water if desired! You can find rose water at most grocery stores! It's usually in the aisle with the cocktail mixers as opposed to the baking aisle. You can also find it online, just make sure you're buying food grade rose water!! Also, be aware that rose water is VERY strong! You only need a tiny bit!
Honey - Hibiscus tea is rather tart, so a small amount of honey or sugar just helps sweeten the tea slightly. But feel free to use as much or as little as you prefer!
Milk - I prefer using whole milk because it froths the best, but you can also use your favorite plant-based milk if desired!
The complete list of ingredients and amounts is located in the recipe card below.
