A quick and easy creamy pink drink latte made with hibiscus tea, coconut milk, and natural sweeteners, perfect for summer refreshment and nostalgic comfort.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) brewed hibiscus tea, cooled
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) white cranberry juice or pineapple juice
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) natural cane sugar or honey (adjust to taste)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) full-fat coconut milk, chilled
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) pure vanilla extract
  • Ice cubes as needed
  • Optional garnishes: fresh mint leaves, edible flower petals, crushed freeze-dried raspberries or strawberries

Instructions

  1. Brew the hibiscus tea by boiling 1 cup (240 ml) of water and steeping 1-2 hibiscus tea bags or 2 tablespoons of loose hibiscus flowers for 5-7 minutes. Strain if desired and let cool to room temperature or chill for 10-15 minutes.
  2. In a glass or small bowl, combine the cooled hibiscus tea with 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of white cranberry or pineapple juice. Stir in 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of sugar or honey until fully dissolved. Adjust sweetness to taste.
  3. Pour 1 cup (240 ml) of chilled coconut milk into a frothing pitcher or jar. Add 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of vanilla extract. Froth using a milk frother or whisk vigorously until light and airy. Alternatively, shake in a sealed jar for 30 seconds.
  4. Fill a serving glass halfway with ice cubes. Slowly pour the pink tea mixture over the ice. Gently pour the frothed coconut milk on top to create layered effect.
  5. Garnish with fresh mint leaves, edible flower petals, or crushed freeze-dried berries if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Let the hibiscus tea cool completely before mixing with coconut milk to maintain distinct layers. Full-fat coconut milk froths better than light versions. If no frother is available, shaking in a sealed jar works well. Adjust sweetness carefully as hibiscus tea is naturally tart. Store pink base and coconut milk separately in airtight containers for up to 2 days.
