Description
A simple, 3-ingredient cold brew coffee drink infused with pure pumpkin puree and cinnamon. It offers a cozy, autumnal flavor profile without artificial syrups or complex preparation.
Ingredients
- 2 cups (480ml) Cold Brew Coffee
- 3 tablespoons (45g) 100% Pure Pumpkin Puree
- 1–2 Cinnamon Sticks (or 1/2 to 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon)
- 2–4 tablespoons Milk or Cream (optional, for creaminess)
- 1 teaspoon Maple Syrup or Honey (optional, for sweetness)
- Ice Cubes (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Pour 2 cups of cold brew coffee into a mason jar or shaker bottle.
- Add 3 tablespoons of pure pumpkin puree to the coffee.
- Add 1-2 cinnamon sticks or 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds to emulsify the pumpkin and create a creamy texture. Alternatively, stir well with a spoon until fully incorporated.
- Taste and add maple syrup or honey if desired, then stir again.
- Pour over ice if serving cold, or gently heat in a saucepan over low heat if serving warm (do not boil).
- Garnish with a cinnamon stick or sprinkle of cinnamon and serve immediately.
Notes
Ensure you use 100% pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, which contains added sugars and spices. Shake vigorously to prevent the pumpkin from settling at the bottom. The drink can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days; stir well before serving. For a smoother texture, a blender can be used instead of shaking.
