Salted Caramel Pumpkin Cold Brew Coffee
Pumpkin cold brew is the easiest fall coffee drink to make at home. A homemade salted caramel syrup, warming fall spices, and pumpkin take this creamy coffee drink over the top!
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup water, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin puree
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup half and half cream
- 1/2 cup 2% milk
- 8 oz cold brew coffee
- Ice for serving
Combine sugar and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally until sugar is dissolved. Continue boiling syrup over medium heat without stirring for 15-20 minutes until syrup is a deep amber color.
Warm remaining 1/4 cup water in microwave. When syrup reaches amber color, remove from heat and carefully whisk in warm water, being careful to avoid splattering. Whisk caramel until smooth, returning to heat for a minute or two if it starts to harden. Stir in salt and let caramel cool several minutes.
In a large bowl, combine pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, half and half, milk, and cooled caramel syrup. Using an electric mixer, beat mixture on high speed until slightly thickened and frothy.
Divide cold brew and ice between two glasses. Spoon caramel pumpkin milk mixture over top and serve immediately. Enjoy!
