This Iced Vanilla Rose Latte is a stunning pink drink that's floral, refreshing, and incredibly easy to make. Made with clean ingredients like rose powder, maple syrup, and your favorite milk of choice, it's the perfect way to enjoy a coffee shop experience at home, minus the caffeine crash.
I started experimenting with rose powder after reading about its anti-inflammatory properties and history in folk medicine. This floral latte isn't just pretty, it's packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that help protect your cells, support heart health, and even promote glowing skin. It may also help you sleep better, boost your mood, and slow signs of aging-what's not to love?
This drink also has a delicious, floral flavor, providing a calming energy boost and offering nourishment, much like my Magic Mushroom Smoothie. It's also my favorite way to enjoy an afternoon pause on a busy day. Let's make it!

Ingredients To Make This At-Home Latte:
You only need 5 simple ingredients to make this homemade latte. And as always, I'll leave links to my favorite products.
- Anima Mundi Rose Powder: This deliciously tasting rose powder adds a naturally vibrant pink hue and a gentle rose flavor. It's also packed with antioxidants and known for its calming effects. If you're looking for a trusted source I've already vetted, then I recommend getting rose powder from Anima Mundi. It's organic, high quality, and tastes incredible. Plus, you'll get 15% off with my code "NATURALVEGAN".
- Pink Pitaya Powder: Rose powder alone won't turn your latte pink. It tends to create more of a soft lavender-purple hue. To achieve that dreamy pink drink vibe, I recommend adding a touch of pitaya for a vibrant, plant-based pop of color! It also adds a slight fruity note.
- Maple Syrup: It's the perfect sweetener for this recipe, complementing the vanilla rose latte without overpowering it.
- Vanilla Extract: It enhances the sweetness and rounds out the rose latte taste with a warming and comforting flavor.
- Plant-Based Milk of Choice: Any plant-based milk you love will work beautifully in this dairy-free rose latte. I personally enjoy coconut milk, soy milk, and oat milk for their creaminess, but even homemade milk options, such as my Creamy Homemade Hazelnut Milk or Sunflower Seed Milk, are great alternatives. Or choose your favorite nut milk.

How To Make It:
It's so easy to make this iced rose latte. Let's have a look.
- Make the Rose Mix: In a large enough mason jar, whisk together the rose powder, pink pitaya powder, and maple syrup with water until smooth.
- Assemble Your Latte: Fill a tall serving glass with ice cubes. Pour over the plant-based milk and vanilla extract, followed by the rose mixture.
- Serve: Stir to combine. Enjoy!
Top Tips:
Here are a few of my tips to make this a drink a "coffee shop worthy" latte.
- For a Smooth Texture: I highly recommend always first whisking the powders with the sweetener and a bit of water to get the perfect "rose water" texture before mixing it with the rest of the ingredients. You want to make sure that there are no powdered clumps left and the flavors are sufficiently released.
- Use Lukewarm Water: The rose powder and pink pitaya will mix better with lukewarm water rather than cold water.
- Add Beautiful Garnishes: If you're making this for guests or friends, top it off with edible organic rose petals or rose buds for the most beautiful presentation, especially if you have leftovers from making my Vegan Vanilla Rose Ice Cream.
Variations And Substitutions:
Here are a few good options if you want to slightly modify the recipe or use whatever you have on hand.
- Sweetener: Instead of maple syrup, you can also try maple crystals, date syrup, yacon syrup, or any other plant-based liquid sweetener. You can use coconut sugar or cane sugar, but you'll need warm water to dissolve it.
- Pink Pitaya Powder Alternative: Beetroot powder can yield similar color results, but with a more earthy flavor.
- Add Chai Flavors: Try adding ground cardamom, cinnamon, and cloves to the base for a chai rose latte. You can also use Anima Mundi's Dirty Rose Chai Powder (which I love using for my Dirty Rose Chai Cinnamon Rolls as well).
- Coffee: You can add iced coffee or a shot of espresso to the base for a flavored traditional latte.
- Make it a Hot Beverage: Turn it into a vanilla rose latte by using warm milk instead of ice, especially if serving on cold days.
Storage:
While best enjoyed immediately, you can prep the rose mixture ahead and store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just shake before using and pour over fresh ice with your milk mixture when ready.
Equipment Needed:
Here's what you need to make this 5-minute rose latte.
- Mason Jar or Small Bowl: To combine the powders with sweetener and water.
- Milk Frother: Or a whisk to combine the powders with water.
- Tall Glass and Spoon: For serving.
- Ice Cubes: For that instant, a cold serve.
Recipe FAQs:
Nope! This is a naturally caffeine-free beverage, perfect for late afternoons when you want to unwind.
It has a light, floral flavor, mildly sweet and calming. Think of it as a more delicate, botanical version of a vanilla latte.
Absolutely. Just add a shot of cold brew, strong coffee, or double espresso to the milk for a rose-flavored iced coffee twist.
