5-Minute Cold Brew Coffee Latte Recipe
Description
The 5-Minute Cold Brew Coffee Latte Recipe mixes soaked Medjool dates blended into cashew or almond milk along with a pinch of salt and optional peanut butter. Once blended into a frothy, naturally sweet milk, this base is poured over ice and topped with cold brew coffee to create a refreshing iced latte. The dates dissolve completely in the milk, adding a mild caramel sweetness that balances the coffee's bitterness. Peanut butter, if added, lends a subtle nutty richness reminiscent of a salted caramel flavor.
This latte is ideal for those who prefer naturally sweetened coffee drinks with plant milk alternatives and is refreshing served over ice, suitable for warm weather or casual coffee breaks. It allows customization of the milk-to-coffee ratio and optional ingredients to suit taste preferences.
Using cashew milk ice cubes instead of plain ice helps maintain flavor without dilution, and freezing cold brew concentrate into ice cubes can intensify the coffee taste. The blended milk mixture can be made ahead and refrigerated for convenience. Adjust the number of dates to control sweetness levels, and adding a pinch of salt balances flavor contrasts.
Ingredients
- 2 Medjool dates
- ½ cup cashew milk or almond milk
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter unsalted; optional
- 1 pinch salt
- ice cubes see notes
- 1 cup cold brew coffee see notes
Instructions
- Place dates, milk, peanut butter, and salt in a blender.

- Pour in the cold brew coffee.

Notes
- Freeze cashew milk into ice cubes to keep the latte from diluting as it chills.
- Use coffee concentrate ice cubes for a stronger, less watery coffee flavor.

- Adjust the amount of dates to control the sweetness according to your preference.
