Or Whatever You DoHomemade Vanilla Sweet Cream Coffee Creamer

Homemade Vanilla Sweet Cream Coffee Creamer is super simple to make, has only 4 ingredients, and can totally replace the store-bought versions in your fridge. I love whipping up a batch of this to use all week in my coffee!

I can’t even tell you how much I love flavored coffee creamers, because it would be embarrassing. It isn’t quite as much as I love coffee, but pretty close. I was pretty excited when they came out with the “real cream” kinds – but even those don’t compare to what you can do with this recipe.

The real beauty of this is how simple it is. Only 4 ingredients, and amazingly customizable. If vanilla isn’t your thing, substitute some other extract. Hazelnut would be amazing. Add a touch of almond extract. You decide!

I stuck with plain old vanilla for mine, because that is my very favorite. I even prefer vanilla ice cream.

I’m weird, I know. Embrace it.

Oh, and this darling jar? I got it at Michael’s for like $5 bucks. It holds enough for almost a week of coffee creamer for my husband and I, and I love that I can reuse it every week.

You know what goes great with this coffee creamer? My homemade cold brew coffee, that’s what. And when you put those two things together do you know what you get? A pretty good copycat, and my version of my new favorite Starbucks drink – my Homemade Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Brew.
