Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (240 ml) cold brew coffee
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) pure maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon pecan extract
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) creamy oat milk
- Ice cubes (coffee ice cubes recommended)
- Optional: pinch of ground cinnamon or nutmeg
- Optional: drizzle of extra maple syrup
Instructions
- Prepare the Cold Brew: If using store-bought cold brew, chill it in the fridge. If making your own, combine 1 cup (85 g) coarsely ground coffee with 4 cups (950 ml) cold filtered water in a large jar or cold brew maker. Stir gently and cover. Let steep in the fridge for 12-18 hours.
- Strain the Cold Brew: After steeping, strain the coffee through a fine mesh sieve or coffee filter to remove grounds. Transfer the cold brew concentrate to a clean container.
- Mix the Flavor: In your serving glass, add 1 cup (240 ml) cold brew coffee. Stir in 2 tablespoons (30 ml) pure maple syrup and 1/2 teaspoon pecan extract. Mix until well combined.
- Add Ice and Oat Milk: Fill the glass with ice cubes (coffee ice cubes if available). Pour 1/2 cup (120 ml) creamy oat milk over the ice. Stir gently to combine and create a marbled effect.
- Optional Garnish: Sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon or nutmeg on top for extra flavor. Add a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.
- Serve Immediately: Enjoy right away for the best texture and flavor. For advance preparation, keep cold brew mixture and oat milk separate and combine before serving.
Notes
Use coffee ice cubes to avoid diluting flavor. Stir gently to maintain creamy texture without froth. Adjust maple syrup and pecan extract to taste. Pecan extract can be substituted with vanilla extract plus crushed toasted pecans if needed. Store cold brew and syrup mixture refrigerated up to 5 days; add oat milk and ice before serving.
