Hibiscus Rose Latte
Enjoy this Hibiscus Rose Latte on a cold day to warm your soul. Filled with hibiscus tea, rose, and almond milk, this healthy latte will be your new favourite warming drink!
This is an old recipe from the blog that has been updated to make it even better!
One of my favourite things to do during the Fall and winter is to cozy up at home with a cup of tea or a latte and practice the art of Hygge. There’s nothing better than enjoying those sweet little moments in life with a latte in hand!
This Hibiscus Rose Latte recipe is the perfect cozy drink for when you want something a little more special than a regular cup of tea. It’s made with hibiscus tea, which gives the latte a beautiful dusty pink colour and rose water for a touch of a light floral note.
One thing I love about this recipe is that you can experiment with a few different types of hibiscus tea blends. Some may already have rose in them which you can use in place of the rose water, or some have a combination of hibiscus and fruity elements. Feel free to choose any type of hibiscus tea you love in this recipe!
Why you’ll love this recipe
- This latte will make you feel extra special rather than just drinking a plain cup of tea.
- The combination of hibiscus and rose makes this latte fresh and floral.
- This latte is completely dairy-free and can be made in under 10 minutes!
How to make a Hibiscus Rose Latte
You can either use a frother to make this latte, or you can make it by heating it all together in a pot. I prefer to make this with a frother, which gives it that beautiful creamy foam on top.
Frother method:
Steep the tea in a pot of the boiling water, rose and spices then pour into a cup. Froth the oat milk in your frother and then fill the cup the rest of the way with the frothed milk.
Stovetop method:
Steep the tea in a pot of the boiling water, rose and spices. Remove the spices and tea bags from the pot and add in the oat milk. Use a whisk and continue to whisk together to manually froth the milk a bit. Pour into your cup and enjoy!
Tips for making this recipe perfectly
- I used an aeroccino to froth the oat milk for this recipe, but another great option is an aerolatte! (just warm your milk before)
- Oat milk tends to froth the best for lattes compared to almond milk or other plant-based milk. Some brands will mark the word “barista” on the plant-based milk to indicate that it froths well, so keep a lookout for that when shopping!
- Experiment with different varieties of Hibiscus teas for this recipe.

Will it taste okay if I used raspberry hibiscus?
I think that would taste great!
How do you keep the oat milk from curdling with the hibiscus tea?
Hi Kathi, the oat milk shouldn’t curdle in the tea. It should be like a London fog (tea+milk) it might be depending on the type of oat milk your using! I recommend maybe trying a different kind!
Love the pink leaves on the latte! I am SUCH a huge fan of aesthetically gorgeous drinks, as I am no latte art maker. Anyhow, you can’t go wrong with a beautiful latte made with lovely tea and oat milk–EVER. Also wouldn’t mind adding some maca powder for extra health properties!
Thanks so much Cassie!
This latte is so pretty.
Thank so much!
Any recommendations on where to look for buying organic edible rose water and organic edible rose leaves?
This looks great! I just got some Pink House Alchemy Hibiscus Rose syrup–any tips on how to modify this recipe for syrup?
Hi Julia, I have not tried making this recipe with syrup, but I’d imagine following the recipe and using hibiscus tea, and then rather than adding a sweetener and rose water I’d add some of the hibiscuses rose syrup instead!
Love this non coffee rose flavored latte. Must try!
Thank you! I hope you like it. It’s a great lighter alternative to coffee!
