Coffee giant [Starbucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starbucks-reserve-hot-honey) recently added a [Rose Honey](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/espresso-martini-bar) Latte to its menu lineup and hopes to entice patrons with a unique pairing of rich and botanical flavors. The newly released beverage is described as a "fragrant infusion of caramelized honey, rose water, and earthy cinnamon” which are combined to create a blend that is flavorful without being overpowering.

Ideal for consumers seeking a flavored coffee alternative to Starbucks' more [indulgent frappuccinos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-frappuccino), the new beverage is guaranteed to satisfy patrons' craving for something sweet.

Featuring distinct floral notes, the newly released beverage is now available at Starbucks locations across the United States. As botanical flavors grow more popular in the mixology and gastronomy spheres, it's no surprise that coffee makers are also embracing this versatile ingredient.
