Description

This Dairy-Free Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew inspired by Starbucks’ popular fall drink. It’s easily one of my favourite cold coffee drinks to indulge in during the fall season. Make it from the comfort of your own home with just 5 ingredients in 5 minutes, including a homemade pumpkin spice sauce! 


Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp pumpkin spice sauce (see notes)
  • 1/2 cup vegan milk or cream of choice
  • 1/2 cup Barista soy or oat milk (one that froths well cold with a hand-held frother)
  • 1 cup cold brew coffee
  • ice
  • pumpkin pie spice for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Combine the milk/cream and pumpkin sauce and mix to combine. I use a hand held frother to mix it quickly.
  2. Fill your serving cup halfway with ice. Add the cold brew and pumpkin milk.
  3. Using a frother, froth the barista milk for about 20-30 seconds until thick and foamy. Pour overtop. Sprinkle on some pumpkin spice. Enjoy!

    add mixture to medium heat over stove and bring to a simmer. When bubbling reduce heat and stir until thickened into a sauce consistency.

    remove from heat and add to your favourite desserts or coffee for the perfect pumpkin spice latte.

Notes

The pumpkin sauce can be stored in a jar or airtight container in the fridge for about a week. If you’re worried you won’t use it all in time, you can make a half or even quarter batch.
