Honey Almond Milk Cold Brew is richly coffee flavored with a touch of creaminess from almond milk and the perfect sweetness from honey. Made at home in 2 minutes!

Honey Almond Milk Cold Brew has taken my Starbucks order by storm. It is the perfect summer drink. It is all about the coffee with just a touch of creaminess from the almond milk and mild sweetness and flavor from the honey. Mmmmmm.
Since I can't go to Starbucks daily, this easy at home version has been a treat! It tastes just like the SB version but I can make it in 2 minutes each morning without leaving my house!
Reasons to love this recipe!
- It's incredibly easy to make at home and tastes just like Starbucks!
- Save money every time you make this drink at home.
- You'll only need 3 simple ingredients.
Ingredients and Substitutions:
- Cold brew - you can make your own at home or buy cold brew from the store.
- Honey - the key flavor and sweetener in this recipe.
- Almond milk - make it at home or pick up your favorite brand from the store. Use plain, not vanilla, for the most authentic Starbucks flavor.
How to make honey almond milk cold brew:
Dissolve the honey: Start by mixing the honey and hot water together in a small bowl. If you skip this step the honey will not dissolve into the cold brew.
Pour over ice: Pour the honey mixture, cold brew, and almond milk over ice. Stir and enjoy!
Leftovers?
Store any leftovers in the fridge for 3-5 days. Strain out any ice before storing to prevent the drink from getting watered down. Enjoy cold!
The best store-bought cold brew
I often use store-bought cold brew to make this recipe quick and easy! Any unsweetened cold brew will work. I often use Trader Joe's brand, but to give it more authentic flavor, you can use Starbucks brand cold brew.
If you purchase cold brew concentrate, make sure you follow the instructions to properly water it down before using.
The best at-home cold brew
At home cold brew is super easy to make, but it does have to brew in the fridge overnight. If you have the time, it's a great way to brew your favorite coffee. I like to follow this guide.

Looks great! What is your favorite brand of almond milk? I haven't found one that I love yet.
★★★★★
I Lisa, I am with you there and have to admit I most often make this with soy milk. I find it's the creamiest by far and made with fewest ingredients. It also has more protein which I love. When I use almond milk, I tend to buy Califia or Trader Joe's brands. Hope that helps!
