Healthy, Homemade, 4-ingredient, Chocolate/Cinnamon, Creamer (Lowish-Carb, and Vegan)

We just had our yearly maple syrup tour this past weekend. My friends over at Shumake Sugar Shack are part of the tour, and I try to help them when I can. (I liked their website if you wanna buy syrup from them, If not I linked it to amazon too) Every year they come out with a new infused syrup. This year’s was coffee infused. They also have cinnamon, vanilla, and rum infused syrup. My friend, the owner, Jimmy, was trying to think up a new flavor for next year. I said “how about cocoa??” So I figured I’d try it myself and let them try it to see what they think.

You can use this over pancakes and waffles too, but I figured I’d try it as a homemade creamer. I like cold brew a lot and got little pods that you can use hot or cold. For cold you just pour it over ice and add water, so super easy! I’ll link the brand I got if you want to buy it on Amazon.

Cold brew in my opinion is smoother and less acidic because it’s not brewed with hot water. It just sits in cold water overnight, up to 48 hours I believe. Don’t quote me on that. Anyways, you can drink it cold or even heat it up. It’s just brewed with cold water, so totally up to you!

This is a super easy recipe, and wayyy better than all those creamers loaded with sugar from the store! It only takes about 5 minutes to make, and you probably already have all the ingredients on hand right now!! Plus you can even make it vegan it you want to!

I have always been a black coffee drinker. One reason is, the flavored coffees usually have added sugars. I figured if I could drink it black, then get attached to a certain creamer or amount of sugar.
