Starbucks Sweet Cream

How to make a healthier Starbucks vanilla sweet cream which is the perfect creamer for your cold brew coffee.

I love a little splash of sweet cream in my Starbucks cold brew. But, what I do not love is the extra $1.25 and really how unhealthy it can be. I did what I do best and made my own, healthier, Starbucks sweet cream! Yes, this is different than the sweet cream cold foam, it is more of a creamer that you mix into your coffee.

I love making a big container of this to use in my coffee in the mornings.

You will normally see this with half and half, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla; however, I am making it a little healthier.

What You Need for Starbucks Sweet Cream

Typically, this is made with half and half, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla; however, I am making it a little healthier.

• Fat-free half and half
• Coconut cream unsweetened
• Vanilla extract

If you like it sweet, you can add a tablespoon or two of Splenda, or an alternative sweetener, into the mixture as well.

I will probably get this question a lot, does it taste like coconut? I would say only slightly and I really do not notice the coconut too much. Plus, it is dairy free, vegan and gluten free. However, you can still substitute for sweetened condensed milk.

I probably will also get this question, where do I find coconut cream. I grabbed it at Publix; however, I also see that WalMart has it as well. A quick google search should help you locate some.

How to Make Starbucks Sweet Cream

All you need to do is add all the ingredients to a bowl, mason jar, or something similar, and stir together. I love putting everything into a mason jar so I can close up the lid and shake it together.

If the coconut cream is chunky, blend or mix it together very well to form an even liquid. However, the next day, you may need to stain the mixture if the coconut cream is too chunky.

I definitely suggest the mason jar if you are making more than one serving. Seal the mason jar and place it in the fridge to keep the sweet cream fresh. Plus, when you need to use it, give it a shake to make sure everything is still combined.

If you like it sweet, you can add a tablespoon or two of Splenda, or an alternative sweetener, into the mixture as well. I typically just put my Splenda right into my coffee.

I make my coffee with my Ninja coffee maker on the iced setting with Target's vanilla coffee grounds.

What To Do With Starbucks Sweet Cream

My favorite thing to do with Starbucks vanilla sweet cream is to just use it as a creamer. However, you can also froth it and pour that over your coffee.

This makes about 1.25 cups of sweet cream. I typically use ¼ cup of coffee in my coffee each morning; therefore, this will last me five days. I do not like keeping in the fridge for more than a week.
