A convenient and accurate analysis approach that combined solid‐phase extraction and high‐performance liquid chromatography was developed to determine the amount of Rhodamine B in red wine and Xiang‐jiang river water samples. A novel composite, magnesium hydroxide/carbon nanotube composites, was synthesized and used as the solid‐phase extractant for the preconcentration/analysis of Rhodamine B. Magnesium hydroxide/carbon nanotube composites, which combined the merits of carbon nanotubes and magnesium hydroxide, exhibited acceptable adsorption and desorption efficiencies for Rhodamine B. The linear range of the proposed solid‐phase extraction with high‐performance liquid chromatography method for Rhodamine B was 0.05–20.0 mg/L, with a limit of detection of 3.6 μg/L. The precision and reproducibility of the developed solid‐phase extraction with high‐performance liquid chromatography method and the batch‐to‐batch reproducibility of the solid‐phase extractant were also validated at spiking levels of 0.5 and 2.0 mg/L. The recovery of Rhodamine B was 94.33–106.7%, and the recovery relative standard deviations of the intra‐ and interday precisions were ≤ 3.83 and ≤ 6.01%, respectively. The relative standard deviation of the batch‐to‐batch reproducibility was ≤ 7.98%.
