Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 oz (60 ml) espresso or 1/2 cup (120 ml) strong brewed coffee, chilled
  • Ice cubes
  • 1 cup (240 ml) milk of choice (dairy or non-dairy, such as oat or whole milk)
  • 12 tablespoons (12–24 g) brown sugar, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon (1.5 g) ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt (about 1/16 teaspoon)
  • Whipped cream (optional, dairy or coconut)
  • Cinnamon-sugar sprinkle (1 tablespoon sugar mixed with 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, optional)
  • Mini snickerdoodle cookie for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Brew 2 oz espresso or 1/2 cup strong coffee and let cool to room temperature.
  2. In a small bowl or glass, combine milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt. Froth, whisk, or shake until sugar dissolves and milk is slightly frothy. Taste and adjust sweetness or cinnamon as desired.
  3. Fill a 16 oz glass or mason jar halfway with ice cubes.
  4. Pour the cooled espresso or coffee over the ice.
  5. Gently pour the snickerdoodle milk mixture over the coffee and ice. Stir to combine.
  6. Top with whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon-sugar, and a mini snickerdoodle cookie if desired.
  7. Stir before sipping and enjoy immediately.

Notes

For a dairy-free or vegan version, use oat, almond, or coconut milk and coconut whipped cream. Adjust sweetness and spice to taste. For extra creaminess, use whole milk or barista-style oat milk. If brown sugar doesn’t dissolve, warm the milk slightly before mixing. Make coffee ice cubes to avoid dilution. Stir before sipping for best flavor.
