If you love coffee and peanut butter, get ready for your new favorite drink! This Peanut Butter Cold Brew is creamy, nutty, slightly sweet, and packed with bold coffee flavor.
It’s super easy to make and way cheaper than grabbing a fancy coffee shop drink. Plus, it’s naturally protein-packed, so it feels a little indulgent and a little wholesome at the same time. Let’s get into it!
What You’ll Need
- 1 cup cold brew coffee (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter (creamy, unsweetened)
- ¼ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or honey)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Ice cubes

Pro Tips
- Use good cold brew! If making your own, steep coarsely ground coffee in cold water for at least 12 hours for the best flavor.
- Blend for ultra creaminess. Mixing by hand works, but blending makes it extra smooth and frothy.
- Adjust sweetness. If you like it sweeter, add more maple syrup or a splash of flavored coffee creamer.
- Go dairy-free. Oat milk and almond milk both work great here!
- Make it extra fancy. A drizzle of peanut butter on top or a sprinkle of cinnamon makes it look and taste amazing.
Tools You’ll Need
- Blender or milk frother
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Tall glass for serving
Substitutions & Variations
- No cold brew? Brew strong coffee and let it chill.
- Want it extra thick? Add a frozen banana for a smoothie vibe.
- Chocolate twist? Blend in a teaspoon of cocoa powder or drizzle with chocolate syrup.
- Nut-free? Swap peanut butter for sunflower seed butter.
How to Make Peanut Butter Cold Brew
1. Blend the peanut butter and milk
In a blender, combine the peanut butter and milk. Blend until completely smooth.

2. Add cold brew, maple syrup, and vanilla
Pour in the cold brew coffee, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Blend again until smooth and frothy.

3. Pour over ice
Fill a glass with ice cubes and pour the blended mixture over.

4. Stir and enjoy!
Give it a quick stir, and if you like, drizzle a little extra peanut butter on top.

Leftovers & Storage
- Best enjoyed fresh, but you can store any leftover mixture (without ice) in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
- Give it a quick shake or blend before serving since the peanut butter may settle.
