Ingredients

Scale

Cold Brew Coffee

  • 1 cup high-quality cold brew concentrate or homemade cold brew

Pumpkin Spice Syrup

  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground clove
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or brown sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Milk or Milk Alternative

  • 1/2 cup milk, oat milk, almond milk, or coconut milk (adjust to preference)

Other

  • Ice cubes (enough to fill your glass)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Cold Brew Coffee: Start with a fresh batch of cold brew or a good-quality store-bought concentrate. To make your own, steep coarsely ground coffee in cold water for 12 to 24 hours, then strain out the grounds to create a smooth, less acidic coffee base.
  2. Mix the Pumpkin Spice Syrup: In a small saucepan, combine pumpkin puree, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, clove, sweetener, and vanilla extract over low heat. Stir continuously until the mixture is well incorporated and slightly thickened, then remove from heat and allow it to cool to room temperature.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Fill a glass with ice cubes, pour the cold brew coffee over the ice, and add your desired amount of pumpkin spice syrup. Top with your choice of milk or milk alternative and stir until creamy and well blended.
  4. Taste and Adjust: Sample your drink and add more pumpkin spice syrup or milk if you prefer it sweeter or creamier. This step ensures your Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew matches your personal flavor preferences perfectly.

Notes

  • Use fresh ground spices for the best flavor—ground spices lose potency quickly.
  • Customize sweetness by adjusting the amount of maple syrup or brown sugar.
  • Prepare the pumpkin spice syrup ahead and store it in the fridge for up to two weeks.
  • Use a smooth, well-made cold brew to avoid bitterness and ensure balanced flavor.
  • Serve immediately to maintain optimal chill and prevent ice from overly diluting the drink.
