Ingredients
  

Starbucks Drinks Fall
  • 1 cup cold brew coffee Use chilled coffee so the layers stay defined.
  • 0.25 cup cinnamon dolce syrup Adjust up or down to control sweetness and cinnamon flavor.
  • 0.5 cup vanilla sweet cream Keep cold for cleaner layering over the ice.
  • 1 Ice, for serving Add enough ice to fill the glass and chill quickly.
  • 0.1 Cinnamon, for dusting A light dusting goes on top right before serving.

Method
 

Build the layered drink
  1. Fill a glass with ice until it’s well packed.
  2. Pour 1 cup cold brew coffee over the ice.
  3. Stir in 1/4 cup cinnamon dolce syrup until evenly mixed.
  4. Top with 1/2 cup vanilla sweet cream, pouring slowly so it layers.
  5. Dust with a light sprinkle of cinnamon right before serving.

Notes

For the cleanest layered look, pour the vanilla sweet cream slowly over the back of a spoon. Best served immediately after assembling; store any leftover syrup/cream separately in the fridge and re-layer only when ready (1 day). Freezing isn’t recommended for the layered cream texture. If you want a dairy-free version, use a dairy-free vanilla cream or barista-style oat cream in place of vanilla sweet cream.
