Is anyone else OBSESSED with the new Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew at Starbucks?   🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️  I’ve already had three this week.  It’s a problem.  But actually, it was all in the name of RESEARCH because as soon as I took my first sip I knew I had to recreate an at home version of pumpkin cream cold brew.

I actually got a little tired of Pumpkin Spice Lattes a few years ago.  They are usually too sweet for me. But I do like the festive pumpkin spice flavors.  Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew is made with smooth cold brew (you can make your own or take a shortcut and buy cold brew concentrate), and a sweetened pumpkin spice cream. You can add as much or as little pumpkin cream as you want.  Plus, as excited as everyone is for fall, it’s still pretty hot, right? So cold brew makes more sense for early fall.

Tips For making Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew at Home

You can make your own cold brew concentrate – see my guide HERE for how to make cold brew at home! Or you can buy it if you want to take a little shortcut.  Trader Joe’s and Kroger both sell bottles of cold brew concentrate!

After whisking together your pumpkin cream, strain it through a fine mesh sieve to remove solids from the pumpkin and spices.

Store your pumpkin cream in the refrigerator in a container with a tightly fitting lid.

When ready to make your Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew, froth up your pumpkin cream with a milk frother (I use this one) or a blender.

    Even though it’s 110 degrees in Texas, I am in Fall mode! I made this to go with my pumpkin bagel and YUM!!!

    1. So glad you loved it! Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew is perfect for early fall when you want pumpkin but it is too hot outside 🙂

  2. 4 stars
    I made this today and it tasted good but the cream didn’t really foam up like it does at Starbucks, so I just ended up with a flavored creamer in my coffee. The taste was fantastic though so I’m still pretty happy

  3. This was a a complete fail for me. I used a blender to froth before and it worked great but I had used heavy cream for the last recipe. This recipe did not froth at all. I would do 1/2 heavy cream and 1/2 half & half. This didn’t taste anything like the original 🙁

  4. I am dairy free while nursing a little love and the thing that has made me the most sad is missing my favorite Starbucks drink this fall! I have been trying to replicate it at home and this is the absolute best recipe I’ve tried! I used a combo of dairy free creamer and the coconut cream that floats to the top of the can just to make it a little richer, and it was everything I remembered. The proportions in your recipe are absolutely perfect. Thank you so much for this ❤️.

  5. I can’t do dairy but love the PCCB and I usually do it with almond milk. It isn’t the same. So this I used coconut cream and 1/4 c coconut sugar and OMG this is heavenly.

    I saved a tbsp of pumpkin from a doughnut recipe this morning so I could try this out, came out really nice. We always have cold brew and this makes it a treat! Great idea, thanks!

  7. Seriously the best Pumpkin Cold brew. I actually like this better then the Starbucks one. I used the Starbucks refrigerated medium ice coffee because the cold brew is just to much for me. I have tried the pumpkin cream both ways at Starbucks with the cold brew and the ice coffee. Thank you for this. 🎃

    I am paleo and although I love the Starbucks version so much the dairy wasn’t something I could handle. I made this recipe with a Barista Blend almond milk from Calafia farms and used coconut sugar instead of the processed sugar and it is amazing! Getting my fix of a Starbucks favorite { but in a way I can enjoy it } is heavenly! Thank you so much!

  9. This was AMAZING! Did my own half/half since I had cream and whole milk already. Definitely a keeper and I guess I’ll be having this the rest of the year ;D Thank you!
