Why You Will Love This Recipe
This cold brew is smooth, creamy, and incredibly refreshing. The floral aroma of rose pairs beautifully with the rich flavor of coffee, while the vanilla sweet cream adds a luxurious finish. It tastes like a premium coffee shop drink but costs much less to make at home.

Step By Step Instructions
Step 1
Fill two tall glasses with ice cubes.
Step 2
Pour one cup of cold brew coffee into each glass.
Step 3
Add the rose syrup and vanilla syrup to each glass. Stir well until combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and slightly thickened.
Step 5
Slowly pour the vanilla sweet cream over the cold brew. It will naturally cascade through the coffee, creating beautiful creamy layers.
Step 6
Garnish with a few edible dried rose petals if desired and serve immediately.
Variations To Try
Replace whole milk with oat milk or almond milk for a dairy free version. Add a splash of lavender syrup for an extra floral touch. Use honey or maple syrup instead of vanilla syrup for a natural sweetness. For a stronger coffee flavor, use concentrated cold brew. You can also blend the drink with ice to create a frozen coffee treat.
Storage Tips
The vanilla sweet cream can be prepared ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days. Shake or stir before using. Cold brew coffee can also be made in advance and refrigerated for up to one week.
For the freshest flavor, assemble the drink just before serving.
Recipe Notes
Use high quality cold brew coffee for the smoothest flavor. Start with a small amount of rose syrup and adjust to taste because floral flavors can become overpowering. Always use food safe edible rose petals if using them as a garnish. Chilling the sweet cream before serving creates an even creamier texture.
