As September moves along, we’re right in the middle of that time of year where mornings are cold but as the day goes on, it gets warmer and warmer and the sun bewitches us with its warm rays and autumn charm. The perfect afternoon pick-me-up and experience the essence of fall in a glass. A well deserved, easy to make Apple Pie Iced Coffee with a little whip cream and extra cinnamon sugar dusting on top if you feel like splurging. Bring out the apple crisp vibes by using oat milk instead of cream. 

Crafting the Apple Syrup

The heart of this magical concoction lies in the apple syrup. Begin by simmering fresh apple cider, brown sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon sticks, some cinnamon sugar until it bubbles with warmth and sweetness. As it reduces to a thick, luscious consistency, it transforms into a liquid embodiment of the season. Once it cools, pour it into a glass jar with a convenient pour spout, ready to infuse your iced coffee with the essence of fall. 

The Dance of Cold Brew Coffee

For this version, I am using a store bought cold brew to keep it convenient and simple. Use your preferred version of cold brew, whether homemade or store bought as the cool counterpart to the warm apple syrup. I love coming up with seasonal twists on coffee versions, whether warm or cold, a simple syrup bursting with seasonal flavours is the perfect addition to  a coffee canvas waiting to be adorned with the flavors of fall.

Where Magic Happens 

Now comes the magical part. blend the apple syrup and cold brew coffee in a harmony that’s nothing short of enchanting. The sweet, spiced notes of the syrup marry beautifully with the bold, smooth coffee, creating a symphony of flavors that dances on your taste buds. To add a touch of creaminess and comfort, gently pour in your choice of coffee cream. It’s the finishing touch that elevates this iced coffee to a level of indulgence that’s pure autumn bliss. 

Garnish and Serve

Before serving, add the final flourishes,  garnish our Apple Pie Iced Coffee with a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar, a nod to the warm embrace of apple desserts, inviting you to awaken the enchantment within.

With each sip, you’ll be transported to a world where the leaves rustle with secrets and the aroma of baked apples fills the air. Our Homemade Apple Pie Iced Coffee is a testament to the magic of fall, crafted with love to bring warmth and coziness to your every moment. So, take a seat, wrap yourself in a cozy blanket, and savor this autumn-inspired creation. Your taste buds will thank you for the enchantment.
