  • ¼ cup Apple Cider or Apple Juice
  • 2 tablespoons Caramel Sauce plus more for drizzling
  • ½ teaspoon Apple Pie Spice Blend or a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of cloves

Equipment

Method
 

  1. If you don't have cold brew concentrate, brew your favorite coffee extra strong. Allow it to cool completely, then chill it in the refrigerator. This step is crucial to avoid a watered-down iced coffee.
  2. In a separate bowl or glass, whisk together the chilled coffee (or cold brew concentrate), milk of choice, apple cider or juice, caramel sauce, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  3. Stir in the apple pie spice blend and your chosen sweetener. Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness and spice level to your preference. If you like it sweeter, add another teaspoon of your preferred sweetener. If you want more spice, add a tiny pinch more.
