Instructions

Step 1: Make the Cold Brew

  1. Combine Coffee and Water: In a large jar or pitcher, combine the coarsely ground coffee beans with the cold water. Stir to ensure all the coffee grounds are saturated.
  2. Steep: Cover and let steep at room temperature or in the fridge for 12-24 hours, depending on how strong you want your cold brew.

    1. Combine Ingredients: In a small saucepan, combine the water and sugar.
    2. Heat: Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved.
    3. Add Vanilla: Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
    4. Cool: Let the syrup cool to room temperature, then transfer it to a bottle or jar for storage.

Step 3: Make the Vanilla Sweet Cream

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl or pitcher, combine the heavy cream, milk, and vanilla syrup.
  2. Mix: Stir or whisk until well combined. You can also use a blender for a frothier texture.

Step 4: Assemble the Drink

  1. Fill a Glass: Fill a glass with ice cubes.
  2. Add Cold Brew: Pour cold brew over the ice, filling the glass about 3/4 full.
  3. Top with Sweet Cream: Pour the vanilla sweet cream over the top. You can stir it in or let it float for a layered effect.

Optional:

  • Adjust Sweetness: Add additional vanilla syrup to taste if you prefer a sweeter drink.
  • Garnish: Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a drizzle of caramel syrup for an extra indulgent touch.

Tips

  • Cold Brew Storage: Store the cold brew in the fridge for up to two weeks.
  • Sweet Cream Storage: Keep the vanilla sweet cream in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Give it a quick stir before using, as it may separate slightly.
