Coconut rose drink – Vegan
About:
Rose milk has a mild rosy flavour that makes lovely summer drink. It is a versatile welcome drink in many occasions. It is simple and tasty. Rose syrup is easily available in Indian stores or you can make it on your own by using fresh rose petals.
I veganised by using coconut milk, however it can be personalised as per the taste.
Serves-2
Preparation time-10 minutes
Ingredients:
- Unsweetened Coconut milk-2 cups (chilled)
- Pistachios – a handful
- Rose syrup-2-3 tbsp (I used store bought. It can also be made at home)
- Agave Nectar 1 tbsp/ as desired
Procedure:
- Place Pistachio in a blender/food processor and blend it to powder.
- Then add rose syrup, chilled milk, agave nectar and blend until smooth and frothy.
- Relish this easiest summer drink.
Serve chilled.
Note:
- To make Rose syrup at home: Boil 1/2 cup water and cook few rose petals (about 1/2 cup) and once soft just blend it with few tablespoon of Sugar/Honey/Agave nectar. Rose syrup is concentrated form of rose water.
- Can replace low fat coconut milk with regular milk/almond/soya milk as per preference

Wow, this sounds incredible! I love rose anything, but have never thought of adding it to milk. I am definitely going to try this with soya or the almond milk I make in my vitamix. I have rose water not syrup, so I will probably just add a little extra agave or honey. Thanks so much for the lovely idea!

Rose water is a diluted form. May be you can use Rose essence along with rose water to get a concentrated syrup.
Love the idea of making with Soya or Almond Milk HD 🙂

Good morning Chitra! I had a question. I’ve been looking to buy edible rose petals but couldn’t find them. Can we use the flowers from florists into our cooking ?
LikeLike
Radhi – We can use flowers from florists but can’t be assured of how they taste. Each will be different source of origin. However heard there are dried version of petals available in stores. You can have a good rinse and try them.
