What a wonderful and refreshing drink! I love any thing with Rose flavor and pearls, they immediately take you to jannat – ha ha – you know what I mean.
super refreshing Rose iced tea, must try it at home during this summer
Refreshing and delicious the words that pop in my head as soon as I saw the pic. Love the use of rose petals I think I know how to use mine now.
Love the color and liked the drink as well. But not sure if I made it right. I used Roh afza in place of rose syrup and it was so refreshing.
I love this tea with the flavors of rose and I bet this is the perfect refreshing drink!
