The Menu

Every cup is a conversation. Every sip, a moment worth remembering.

SignatureMost Ordered

Tiramisu Latte

Layers of mascarpone-kissed steamed milk meet a double shot of dark espresso, finished with Valrhona cocoa and Madagascar vanilla.

Cookie Butter Latte

Velvety espresso meets house-crafted cookie butter syrup — warm spiced biscuit notes swirled into creamy steamed milk.

Pistachio Latte

Silky house-made pistachio cream swirled through a double shot of espresso and steamed milk, finished with a whisper of rose and toasted pistachio dust.

Salted Caramel Latte

Buttery house caramel and a whisper of fleur de sel balance bold espresso with a silky, indulgent finish.

Spanish Latte

Sweetened condensed milk poured over a double shot of espresso, topped with velvety steamed whole milk. Rich, smooth, and deeply satisfying.

Classic Matcha

Ceremonial-grade Uji matcha, whisked to a luminescent foam and married with steamed oat milk. Clean, earthy, and beautifully grounding.

Mango Matcha

Tropical mango purée floats over whisked ceremonial matcha — sunshine in a glass, with an earthy finish that grounds every sip.

Raspberry Matcha

Bright raspberry purée rippled through ceremonial matcha creates a tart-meets-umami sip with vivid colour and complex depth.

Strawberry Matcha

House-made strawberry compote layered beneath ceremonial matcha and cold oat milk — a visual gradient as stunning as it tastes.

Blueberry Mocktail

Muddled fresh blueberries, lemon, and sparkling water create a deep-purple elixir that's lightly tart and visually striking.

Mango Mojito

Fresh mango, muddled mint, lime, and sparkling water — a tropical take on the classic that refreshes with every sip.

Mangonada

House-made chamoy, chili-lime powder, and fresh mango sorbet layered into an iconic Mexican street-style treat — sweet, tangy, and addictive.

Mint Mojito

Classic and clean — fresh mint, lime juice, cane syrup, and sparkling water. The ultimate palate cleanser between courses.

Piña Colada

Coconut cream, fresh pineapple juice, and a hint of lime blended to a frothy, island-escape finish — completely alcohol-free.

Strawberry Daiquiri

Frozen strawberries, freshly squeezed lime, and a touch of cane syrup shaken to a jewel-bright, effervescent sip.

Beverage Presentation: Building Your Photo Ops

A beverage station becomes a genuine photo opportunity when it combines intentional lighting, a cohesive color palette, and a visible moment of craft — such as latte art or a matcha whisking sequence. Luxury DC events increasingly treat the beverage station as a designed backdrop, positioning it where natural or ambient lighting flatters both the drinks and the guests interacting with them.

Styling a Cozy Middleburg Winter Wedding

A cozy Middleburg winter wedding relies on warm beverage service, layered textures, and intimate lighting to counter the season's chill. A coffee and hot mocktail station at properties like Salamander Resort or The Middleburg Barn gives guests a natural gathering point, while warm spiced drink options and copper-toned styling reinforce the season without feeling generic.

Ceremonial vs. Culinary Matcha: A Complete Guide

Ceremonial-grade matcha is made from the youngest, shade-grown tea leaves and is meant to be whisked with water alone, producing a smooth, low-bitterness flavor ideal for a visible whisking presentation. Culinary-grade matcha is more robust and slightly bitter, designed to stand up to milk, sugar, and baking. Rose & Roasted uses ceremonial-grade matcha for all event bar service.

Our Story

Meet Ajwa Azhar

“Every celebration deserves a cup of something extraordinary.”

— Ajwa Azhar

Philosophy

I started Rose & Roasted because I believe that every celebration deserves a beverage experience that matches its significance. A wedding, a corporate milestone, a first birthday — these are the moments that define us. They deserve more than generic catering. They deserve intention, craft, and a cup of something extraordinary. My philosophy is simple: treat every guest like they are the guest of honor, and treat every beverage like it is a work of art.

Our Promise

When you book Rose & Roasted, you're not hiring a coffee vendor. You're inviting an experience designer into your celebration. I promise to show up fully prepared, fully present, and fully committed to making your event unforgettable — one perfect cup at a time.
