Ingredients
Scale
1 cup strong chicory cold brew concentrate
1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
2 tablespoons caramel syrup
1 tablespoon vanilla syrup
Ice cubes
Optional: Cold foam topping
Optional: Granulated sugar for torching
Instructions
Brew your strong chicory cold brew concentrate.
In a glass, combine the cold brew concentrate, milk, caramel syrup, and vanilla syrup.
Stir well to combine.
Fill the glass with ice cubes.
If using, top with cold foam.
For the crème brûlée effect, sprinkle a thin layer of granulated sugar over the top and carefully torch until caramelized.
Serve immediately.
Notes
For a sweeter coffee, adjust the amount of caramel and vanilla syrup to your preference.
If you don’t have a kitchen torch, you can skip the torched sugar step or try caramelizing sugar in a separate pan and carefully spooning it over the top.
Chicory coffee concentrate can be found in specialty stores or made at home.
