Ingredients
  

Cold Brew Coffee

  • 4 oz coffee beans
  • 4 cup water

Vanilla Sweet Cream

  • 3/4 cup half and half
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup (or agave)

Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Brew Coffee

  • 1 cup cold brew coffee
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 3 tbsp vanilla sweet cream
  • ice

Instructions
 

Making the Cold Brew

  • If you haven't already, you'll need to make the cold brew. I let mine soak for 16-20 hours. I use 4 oz (1/2 cup) of coffee beans and grind them fresh for the best flavor. Mix this with ~4 cups of water.
  • Strain the grounds out of the liquid after the soak is done.

Making the Vanilla Sweet Cream

  • In a sealable container, mix together the half and half, vanilla extract, and maple syrup.
  • Mix vigorously with a spoon, or if you can screw the lid tight, give it a good shake.

  • In a glass start pour the cold brew coffee, water, and cream. Mix together. If you like less creamy, sweet coffee, use 2 tablespoons of the creamer to start. Add more to taste. Top with ice and enjoy. (I find that 4 tablespoons is enough to get the Starbucks flavor), but go off your own taste.
  • The remaining sweet cream can be stored in the fridge for 5 days.

Notes

This recipe requires you to have cold brew made prior to making the coffee or you'll need a concentrate you can use.
