There’s a definite chill in the air now that autumn is here and more often than not I find myself reaching for a hot drink to warm up my body and soul! There are so many lovely, delicious and healthy choices out there and also so many recipes to try out. A quick look into my cupboards and I come across a jar of Anima Mundi herbals rose powder which is 100 percent organic and made from powdered rose petals. It is decided, I am going to make a healing vanilla rose latte to drink and warm the depths of my soul!

Doing some research into rose petals and its benefits, it is said that it has been used for centuries various healing modalities like Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine for healing, this is due to the presence of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of roses. According to the Anima Mundi website some of the key benefits of their rose powder include; reducing skin inflammation, supporting the cardiovascular system, may support blood purification and is hormone balancing to name just a few.
