Since moving to Mexico I have made some lovely friends, mostly due to our children becoming friends themselves. One woman and I try to make it a point to have a weekly coffee date where we can chitchat mostly about our endeavors and the general f*$%kery in the world.
One afternoon she writes, we have to go for a rose coffee!! A rose what?
She took me to this lovely little coffee shop with sinful desserts and shelves filled with handmade artists' wares for purchase. It had an ornate lounge chair by the window and leather-bound books on the small coffee table. Outside there was a terrace with small iron tables and chairs and a beautifully tiled sink to use after your time in the restroom. We sat inside white walls and tiles surrounding, basked by the breeze from the door and baking from the kitchen and suddenly the barista arrived with the coffee.
Initially, it was too pretty to drink so I snapped some photos but then I drank it. It was a rich coffee infused with rose oil. It was a delicate infusion. I shuld have removed the petals prior to driking. Despite roses being edible I did not love my last chewy sips of coffee.

That is a very interesting coffee drink.
I love roses and I love coffee, just never put them together.
Very beautifully Pic.

Neither did I, I was unsure but it was tasty, though I still like a plain ol' cuppa lol. I keep forgetting to credit the photos as nearly most are my own.
I dont drink coffee, but thats a great habit to meet your friend and a nice decorative coffee. ❤️👍
My friend is a tea drinker,lol. I think out for a coffee just became the catch phrase regardless if it's tea or coffee
Wow! I’ve never even thought about having rose infused coffee, I bet the aroma was magical! It was so very pretty to look at for sure(despite the chewy bits lol)😊
Thanks so much for sharing your outing, it sounded like a lovely time!

Never had a coffee with roses but it looks absolutely stunning!
If the taste was anything near to how good it looks, it must have been great :)
I shall take note about the petals in case I ever get the chance to try it!
Thanks for sharing!

let me know if you're ever in the Mayan Riviera! I will take you for a coffee
Hello @dredreams
That's a lovely cup of coffee there. It's unique, and I like it a lot.
I get the part about removing the petals. I would have probably done the same to avoid them going soft and chewy:)
Yes, it was a nice novelty, my daughter is not a fan of coffee but will partake in this one from time to time. I think because it is so dainty and feminine in appearance. Thank you for commenting <3
You're very welcome.
I think that's the case with your daughter for real 😁
That sounds interesting! I know rose oil is supposed to be really good for you! Looks beautiful! But i agree-- i would have removed the petals lol I don't care for chewy coffee 🤣
