Hot and cold option for the beautiful of salted rose caramel tea latte. Earl Grey is brewed with rose petal for a lingering fragrance, top with caramel and milk foam.
Serves: 2
Ingredients
The Rose – or rose caramel
- ½ cup sugar
- 4 Tbsp water
- 4 Tbsp dried edible rose
The Beauty – or milk foam
- 4 Tbsp heavy cream
- 1 tsp sugar
- ¼ tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp milk powder (baby milk powder is fine too – optional)
- 3 tsp whole milk
The Beast – or tea
- 2 Tbsp Earl Grey loose leaf tea
- 1 Tbsp dried edible rose
- 1 cup boiled water
The crowd – just everything else
- ½ cup whole milk
- 1 cup ice (cold option)
Instructions
Brew the tea
- Prepare a mug/jar with lid or tea pot for brewing the tea.
- Add 2 tablespoons of Earl Grey loose tea and a full spoon of rose buds/petal (about ten small buds or so). Use the back of your spoon to crush the rose buds a little.
- Pour 1 cup of boiling hot water into mug/tea pot, close and let it brew in 10 minutes (hot served) to 20 minutes (cold served).
Make your foam :
- Whip 4 tablespoons of heavy cream and 1 teaspoon sugar until fluffy.
- Add ¼ teaspoon sea salt, 1 teaspoon milk powder – if any, and 3 tsp whole milk (gradually) while beating to soften the foam.
- Chill in fridge until serving.
Caramel the Rose syrup
- While waiting for the tea, let make some rose caramel. Start by adding 4 Tbsp rose buds, ½ cup of sugar and 4 tablespoons of water to a small sauce pan.
- Stir over low heat until all sugar is dissolved and caramelized (about 3-5 minutes).
- Remove from heat, strain and crush through a sieve to obtain the rose caramel syrup.
Charm up some latte (Hot served method)
- Warm or steam ½ cup whole milk with 3 teaspoon rose syrup. Stir to mix and froth a little.
- Get the brewed tea and stir in 1 teaspoon of the rose caramel syrup.
- Pour tea into serving cup and then add the warm milk in. Finally add the salted milk foam.
- Sprinkle on some crushed rose petals or powder for decoration. Serve warm immediately.
Engage the milk tea (Cold served method)
- Froth the milk with a whisk or mixer head.
- Add the tea into a shaker, stir in 4 teaspoon rose syrup and swirl a couple times to mix.
- Then add about 5 ice cubes into shaker, cover and shake rigorously. This will make the tea quickly cool down.
- Put the remaining ice cubes into serving glasses.
- Pour tea, froth milk and finally milk foam in.
- Decorate with rose petal and serve cold.
