Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew – Vanilla cold brewed coffee is topped with a homemade pumpkin cream so you can enjoy your Starbucks obsession right at home!

The seasonal cold brews at coffee shops are becoming by go-to drink. They don’t have as a much sugar and the coffee flavor is strong, while also giving me a pep of seasonal flavor. For the fall, Starbucks releases a Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew that blows me away every time. It’s bold, has a yummy creamy consistency, and the pumpkin spice sends a comforting feeling all throughout your body with every sip.

I much prefer making my own coffee at home, not only because it saves me $5, but also because I can control the ingredients a little more. I recreated this Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew without using any artificial pumpkin flavor and with my homemade cold brew. It was completely divine.

Here is my Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew!

What is cold brew coffee?

Cold brew coffee is just a coffee that has been slowly steeping overnight in the refrigerator. The slow steep allows the coffee flavors to be really bold, without going stale like it does in hot coffee that sits for more than an hour.

Some people have fancy cold brew pitchers that help filter out the grounds once the coffee is done but you don’t need that. I just filter out the grounds with a mesh sieve and a coffee filter. It works great!

Making the pumpkin cream

Once the cold brew is made and filtered, it’s time to make the pumpkin cream. This is super simple. All you do is blend all the pumpkin cream ingredients and then keep blending on low to froth up the cream until thick.

The pumpkin cream is added on top of the cold brew coffee over ice and then finished with a little more pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon.

Tips & Tricks

  1. Vanilla syrup is NOT vanilla extract. I used vanilla syrup, like this one from Torani, for this recipe. It is NOT the same as using vanilla extract so make sure your use a syrup.
  2. Pumpkin pie spice. If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, you can use a mixture of those spices. For this recipe, I would use 1/8 teaspoon of cinnamon, a pinch of ginger, and a pinch of nutmeg.
  3. Heavy cream is important for frothiness. Since I don’t have a milk frother, I used a blender to achieve the right creamy consistency. But in order to make sure it came out thick, I had to add in a little extra fat in the form of heavy cream. So this is my warning to you – don’t skip out of the cream!

Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew

Prep Time15 minutes mins
Brew time:12 hours hrs
Total Time12 hours hrs 15 minutes mins
Servings: 2 drinks

Ingredients

  • ⅔ cup coffee grounds
  • 3 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla syrup
  • pumpkin cream recipe below
Pumpkin Cream:
  • ¼ cup half and half
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice plus a little more to sprinkle on top

Instructions

  • The night before, fill a 4-cup measuring cup with 3 cups of water. Add coffee grounds and stir together. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight for at least 12 hours.
  • The next morning, strain the coffee through a mesh sieve a few times to remove all the grounds. I even push it through a coffee filter to get all the particles out. Add 2 tablespoons of vanilla syrup to the coffee and refrigerate while we make the pumpkin cream.
  • Add pumpkin cream ingredients to a blender and mix on medium to blend together. Then, mix on low to froth up the mixture until thickened. This took me about 1 minute on low speed. If you have a milk frother, that works too!
  • Fill two pint glasses with ice up to 2/3 full. Split coffee between both glasses. Top with pumpkin cream. Drink immeditately.

Your method for the homemade pumpkin cream sounds like a perfect balance. I actually like to pair my coffee time with some quiet creativity. Lately, I’ve been using a Pixel Beads tool to sketch out colorful autumn patterns that match the drink’s vibe. It’s nice to have a go-to low-sugar recipe for cozy mornings. Do you recommend chilling the cream before pouring it on top? Thanks for sharing this fall favorite, can’t wait to try it!

    Fresh poppy pods are the seed pods that are harvested from the poppy flower. Poppies are known for their beautiful flowers, but it’s their seed pods that are of the most value. These pods contain the seeds for the next crop and, when dried, they are frequently used in floral arrangements and other decorative crafts.

    I’m a coffee lover too and love those seasonal coffees (but not the price). This is one delicious brew and all the better because I can have one whenever I want. Thanks for the perfect morning pick-me-up.

    I just love this pumpkin cream cold brew from Starbucks, and this is even better! The creamy topping turned out so good with just the right kick of pumpkin spice.

    I’ve never tried pumpkin in my coffee before (I always thought cinnamon in coffee sounded a little weird) but this recipe looked so yummy and easy that I decided to try it this morning and it was delicious! Great recipe.

    I love this fall spin on a classic hot fall drink. We have a few unseasonably hot days coming up and this drink would be the perfect treat for those hot afternoons.

Biscotti is the dessert I never knew I needed. I discovered them in college when I craved a snack while studying for finals. I bought a biscotti at the library coffee shop and dunked it in my coffee. The cookie that I thought was too crunchy suddenly turn soft and chewy. Yum!

Those memories inspired me to make my own biscotti. First, I made these gingerbread biscotti. And then I made this pistachio version. Now, I’m recreating the biscotti I first had many years ago – Double Chocolate Biscotti.
