Ingredients You’ll Need
- 1 cup cold brew coffee (store-bought or homemade)
– Check out our Easy Homemade Cold Brew Recipe HERE
- 2 tablespoons apple syrup
- 1 tablespoon caramel sauce (I highly recommend THIS caramel sauce instead of using a syrup)
- 1/2 tablespoon butterscotch syrup
- Ice cubes
- Optional: cold foam, whipped cream, or extra caramel drizzle for a yummy topping and presentation points 😉
How to Make a Caramel Apple Cold Brew
1. Mix the flavors
In a glass, combine apple syrup, caramel sauce, butterscotch syrup, and cold brew. Stir until smooth.
2. Prepare your Glass
In a separate glass, drizzle caramel sauce around the sides. Then fill with ice.
3. Add Cold Brew and top
Pour the cold brew mixture over the ice. If desired, top with cold foam or whipped cream and drizzle with a little extra caramel for that golden autumn glow.
Tips for the Perfect Fall Coffee
- Adjust sweetness to taste — if you prefer a lighter drink, start with less syrup and build up.
- For a Creamy Cold Brew, try adding a splash of cream
- Use flavored cold foam for extra depth — try frothing milk with a little bit of apple, caramel, or butterscotch flavoring.
- Serve it to guests as a festive alternative to hot lattes at your next fall gathering.
