Almond Joy Cold Brew

November 8, 2023

A refreshing and indulgent coffee beverage that captures the essence of the classic candy bar. To create this delightful drink, start with 8-12 ounces of cold coffee. If you're using concentrate, simply add water according to the bottle's instructions to achieve the desired coffee strength.

For creaminess, you can opt for 2 tablespoons of half & half or 1/3 cup of your choice of milk (dairy or dairy-free). A teaspoon of unrefined coconut oil adds a touch of nutty richness. To make this coffee a nutritional boost, incorporate a serving of collagen or flavored protein powder. For that classic chocolate flavor, add a teaspoon of cacao or unsweetened cocoa powder. Sweeten to taste with monk fruit sweetener or a few drops of liquid stevia if desired.

For the Almond Joy twist, you can add a drop of almond extract to capture the essence of the beloved candy bar.

This Almond Joy Cold Brew is the perfect way to enjoy the flavors of chocolate, coconut, and almond in a refreshing coffee treat. Sip and savor the delightful combination of flavors in every cup!
