Oatmeal Cookie Cold Brew Recipe

Introduction

This Oatmeal Cookie Cold Brew is a cozy and refreshing twist on your regular iced coffee. Infused with warm spices and creamy sweetness, it captures the comforting flavors of oatmeal cookies in a cool, energizing drink perfect for any time of day.

Ingredients

• 2 cups cold brew coffee (store-bought or homemade)
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup milk (whole, oat, or almond)
• 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
• Crushed oatmeal cookies (optional, for topping)
• Extra cinnamon for dusting (optional)

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a large jar, combine the cold brew coffee, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir well until evenly mixed.
2. Step 2: In a small saucepan over low heat, whisk together the milk, sweetened condensed milk, maple syrup, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract. Warm the mixture for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly but do not let it boil.
3. Step 3: Remove the creamer from heat and let it cool slightly. Froth the creamer using a milk frother or by shaking it vigorously in a sealed jar until it becomes frothy and creamy.
4. Step 4: Fill a tall glass with ice. Pour in the cinnamon-vanilla cold brew base, then gently top with the frothed oatmeal cookie creamer.
5. Step 5: Garnish with crushed oatmeal cookies and a light dusting of cinnamon if desired. Stir gently before drinking and enjoy the cozy flavors.

Tips & Variations

• For a vegan version, use almond or oat milk and substitute the sweetened condensed milk with a plant-based condensed milk alternative.
• Adjust the spices to your personal taste, adding more cinnamon or nutmeg for a stronger warm spice flavor.
• If you don’t have a frother, shaking the creamer in a sealed jar vigorously works just as well to create foam.
• Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor, but you can prepare the cold brew base and creamer separately ahead of time.

Storage

Store any leftover cold brew base and creamer separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat the creamer gently on the stove before frothing again. Assemble the drink fresh each time to maintain the best texture and flavor.

FAQs

Can I use regular brewed coffee instead of cold brew?

While you can use regular brewed coffee, cold brew provides a smoother, less acidic flavor that pairs better with the creamy oatmeal cookie creamer. If using hot coffee, let it cool completely before assembling the drink.

Can I make this drink sugar-free?

Yes, you can substitute the sweetened condensed milk and maple syrup with sugar-free alternatives, but keep in mind it may alter the rich, sweet flavor slightly. Using unsweetened milk and adding a sugar-free syrup can also work well.
