If you’ve ever wanted to make coffee creamer at home, you can now!
When you look at the ingredients list of storebought coffee creamer, you’ll notice lots of ingredients – lots that aren’t easy to pronounce.
But with our classic homemade vanilla coffee creamer, you just need 3. I’ll show you how to make it below and various other options you can use if you prefer other flavored coffee creamers.
I then used Stumptown Coffee Hair Bender to make cold brew coffee, which paired nicely with this DIY coffee creamer.
Vanilla Coffee Creamer Ingredients
- ⅔ cup sweetened condensed milk
- ⅓ cup whole milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract or vanilla syrup
Tips for Making Vanilla Coffee Creamer
Sweetened Condensed Milk
While you can make sweetened condensed milk at home, I used a storebought one, making it very easy to put this vanilla coffee creamer together in just minutes.
Milk
I used and recommend using whole milk.
You can use plant based milk too (but keep in mind, sweetened condensed milk is milk so the coffee creamer won’t be dairy free.)
Vanilla
I used vanilla extract.
But you can also use vanilla syrup, like Monin Vanilla Syrup. Taste a little of the coffee creamer and add more flavor if you prefer.
Other Flavor Ideas
Vanilla is just the beginning. Using the base of ⅔ cup sweetened condensed milk and ⅓ cup whole milk, you omit the vanilla extract and replace it with various other flavors.
You can use an array of coffee syrups to flavor the coffee creamer, including:
- Hazelnut
- Caramel
- Irish Cream
- Amaretto (Non Alcoholic syrup)
- Peppermint
Or use spices or powders like:
- Cinnamon
- Cocoa powder
- Pumpkin Spice
- Turmeric
- Matcha
- Sesame
How to Make Vanilla Coffee Creamer
- Place sweetened condensed milk, milk and vanilla extract (or other flavor) in a mason jar.
- Seal the lid of the mason jar on tightly.
- Shake vigorously until ingredients are combined.
