I don’t know about you, but I definitely need some caffeine in order to function. I know it’s probably not the best thing to have to rely on, but I can definitely think of far worst. Every morning I make myself a tall glass of greens, drink a large glass of cold water and then enjoy my favorite part; an almond milk latte. If I’m really lucky, Sean will make me the most beautiful latte, but I can make my own if I need ;). After a few hours and baskets full of laundry, usually a workout or such, I like to make my favorite iced afternoon treat, a Creamy Maple Cinnamon Cold Brew. This combo never gets old and is so freaking refreshing. It’s safe to say I’m severely addicted to this combo, but you will be too once you try it. It makes you feel like you’re drinking a super fancy coffee drink when it really takes like 2 minutes, plus it will save you $$ instead of going out and getting overpriced coffees all the time.

Maple Cinnamon Cold Brew

In college I used to frequent our campus Starbucks at least daily if not more for a Venti Iced Hazelnut coffee and put a splash of almond milk on top. After years of consuming it, I finally realized all the processed sugars and sugar alcohols in those syrups, both regular and sugar free. I still crave those iced coffees and preferably cold brews, but I have found a much more healthy alternative. There's just something so rewarding about the afternoon pick me up, and this is it. This Creamy Maple Cinnamon Cold Brew would also be great hot/warm, but I'll walk you through how I make my fav iced version! So, are you someone who makes a big pot of coffee and then has some extra at the end of the day? If this is you, then save that coffee and use it the next day for this insanely delicious concoction. I am someone who LOVES a strong cold brew. I actually wasn't the biggest fan of hot coffee for quite a long time. It was much harder on my digestive system, but cold or iced didn't seem to really bother me as much. In the summer, I'll make a huge batch of actual cold brew and then store it in glass ball jars to use throughout the week. It's just as easy to use leftover coffee, though. So let's get this cold brew party started.
