Homemade caramel-vanilla iced coffee in a tall glass with ice.

Ingredients

For the Caramel:

  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar packed
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 4 teaspoons ghee (or plant-based butter)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Coffee:

  • 3 cups brewed coffee chilled
  • 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • Ice

Instructions

  • In a small pot, stir together all the ingredients for the caramel over medium heat. Bring to a boil.  
  • Once boiling, cook until the caramel is reduced by almost 1/2 and takes on a darker color. This takes about 5 to 6 minutes. Stir constantly so that it doesn't burn.
  • Immediately transfer to a measuring glass (you should have just over 1/3 cup of caramel) and let sit for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until nice and thick.

To Assemble:

  • Fill three highball glasses halfway with ice cubes. Pour 1 cup of cold coffee into each glass, followed by 1/3 cup of almond milk. Add 2 tablespoons of the caramel syrup into each glass and stir well, until the caramel is dissolved and fully incorporated.
