Equipment

  • mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Cup Lightly Sweetened Whipped Cream
  • 2 Tablespoons Pure Vanilla Syrup
  • 3 Cups Crushed Ice
  • 1 Tablespoon Caramel Sauce
  • 2 Cups Chilled Black Cold Brew Coffee unsweetened
  • 3 Tablespoons Butter Pecan Flavored Syrup
  • 1/4 Cup Dairy or Non-Dairy Creamer
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Ready to whip up some Alaska Coffee? Let’s break it down into simple steps.

Step 1: Prepare the Cold Brew

  • Start by brewing a strong pot of black coffee. You can also opt for store-bought cold brew to save time. Allow the coffee to chill in your refrigerator. This will ensure your drink is refreshing rather than diluted when you serve it over ice.

Step 2: Gather Your Ingredients

  • Before diving in, gather all your ingredients. Having everything at hand makes the process smoother.

Step 3: Mix the Sweetness

  • In a mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar, vanilla syrup, and butter pecan syrup. Stir until the sugar starts to dissolve into the liquid, creating a luscious blend of flavors.

Step 4: Combine with Coffee

  • In a separate pitcher, pour the chilled black cold brew coffee and gradually add the sweetness mixture. Taste it to ensure that the sweetness matches your preference.

Step 5: Add the Cream

  • This is where things get creamy. Pour in dairy or non-dairy creamer and mix well. The creaminess of this blend is a key factor in emulating the beloved Alaska Coffee.

Step 6: Assemble Your Drink

  • In a tall glass filled with crushed ice, pour the mixture over the ice. This will keep your coffee nice and chilled.

Step 7: Top It Off

  • Now, it’s time for the fun part. Add a generous dollop of whipped cream on top. Drizzle caramel sauce over the whipped cream and sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon to finish it off.

Step 8: Serve and Enjoy

  • Stir lightly before sipping to blend the flavors, and dive into that refreshing coffee experience.

Notes

Creating the perfect Alaska Coffee at home is possible with a few handy tips. Here are five insights to help you craft your ideal brew:
  • Use Quality Coffee: Selecting a quality cold brew will greatly enhance your final product. Freshly brewed coffee beans, ground before brewing, can make a difference.
  • Chill Your Coffee Mimosa Style: Make sure your cold brew is chilled before blending. Nobody wants lukewarm coffee!
  • Experiment with Sweetness: Feel free to modify the sweetness to your liking. Taste as you mix to find the balance that suits your palate the best.
  • Top it Off with Flavors: Don’t hesitate to switch up the toppings. Different flavored syrups can offer a unique twist every time you prepare the drink.
  • Store in the Fridge: If you make extra, keep it stored in the fridge to maintain freshness for your next craving.
