Looking for a coffee that’s creamy, energizing, and just a little indulgent? Meet the Peanut Butter Cold Brew — a refreshing blend of coffee, nutty flavor, and plant-based goodness. This easy recipe combines powdered peanut butter, agave, almond milk, and smooth cold brew coffee for a healthy, protein-packed drink that’s perfect for busy mornings or post-workout fuel.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I use regular peanut butter instead of powdered?
You can, but it may make the drink heavier and harder to mix evenly. Powdered peanut butter dissolves much better.

Can I make it without agave?
Yes! You can substitute honey, maple syrup, or your favorite sweetener.

What’s the best coffee for this recipe?
A medium roast with nutty or chocolate notes complements the peanut butter flavor beautifully. We recommend to try our Cold Brew Coffee.

Can I use store-bought cold brew?
Absolutely — just choose one that’s unsweetened and smooth.

Is Peanut Butter Cold Brew healthy?
Yes, it’s low in calories, high in flavor, and offers a mild protein boost — great for active mornings.

The Peanut Butter Cold Brew is a game-changer for coffee lovers who want something refreshing, filling, and just a little bit different. It’s a drink that bridges the gap between breakfast smoothie and iced coffee — rich in flavor but light enough to enjoy any time of day.

What You’ll Need
To make this drink, gather a few simple ingredients: powdered peanut butter (PB Fit or any similar brand), natural agave syrup, almond milk, and cold brew coffee. Powdered peanut butter is the secret ingredient — it brings nutty flavor without the heaviness of regular peanut butter. Agave adds gentle sweetness, while almond milk keeps the recipe vegan and dairy-free.

Making the Cold Brew
If you already have cold brew ready, you’re halfway there. But if not, don’t worry — you can make a quick batch overnight using a French press or mason jar. Combine 30 grams of coarsely ground medium roast coffee with 150 ml of filtered water (a 1:5 ratio). Stir, cover, and let it steep in the fridge for 12 to 20 hours. In the morning, plunge or strain the coffee and you’ll have a smooth, bold base for your drink.

Mixing the Drink
In a shaker, add:

• 1 tablespoon powdered peanut butter

• ½ teaspoon agave syrup

• 150 ml (5 oz) of cold brew coffee

• 1 oz (30 ml) almond milk

• Ice

Shake everything well until it’s frothy and cold. Pour over a glass filled with ice, and that’s it — your Peanut Butter Cold Brew is ready to enjoy.

Why You’ll Love It
This recipe is naturally vegan, low in calories, and surprisingly satisfying. The combination of peanut butter and coffee delivers a mild protein boost along with caffeine for sustained energy. It’s perfect for hot days, pre-workout fuel, or even as a healthy afternoon pick-me-up.

If you love experimenting with coffee flavors, try swapping almond milk for oat or coconut milk, or use honey instead of agave for a richer sweetness. You can also make a larger batch and store it in the fridge for up to three days — just shake before serving.

Refreshing, energizing, and delicious — this Peanut Butter Cold Brew might just become your new favorite morning ritual.

I love this recipe because not only does it give me a boost in the mornings, but it also fills me up and is super easy to make. Here’s what you’ll need: powdered peanut butter (I recommend PB Fit, but any low-calorie peanut butter powder will work), natural agave as your sweetener, and almond milk for a dairy-free, vegan-friendly touch. Feel free to experiment — you can swap the agave for honey or use a different type of milk. And of course, the star of the show: cold brew coffee for that essential energy kick.

This recipe is simple yet effective — perfect for busy mornings or afternoon slumps. If you’ve seen our previous videos, you know we already have a detailed cold brew recipe that’s super smooth and clean. But for this one, we don’t need it to be perfect — the peanut butter powder adds enough depth and richness to balance it out. That’s why today, we’re using a super quick and easy method.

All you need is a French press or a jar with a fine mesh strainer. We’re using a medium roast coffee with a 1:5 coffee-to-water ratio. Today we’re halving the recipe to make a single serving, but you can easily make a batch and store it in the fridge for up to a few days.

Start by weighing out 30 grams of coffee beans and coarsely grinding them. (By the way, we currently have 20% off coffee — use the code on screen and the link in the description if you want to try some!) Next, saturate the grounds with 150 ml (or 5 oz) of filtered water in your French press or jar. Let it sit in the fridge for 12 to 20 hours, depending on how strong you like your coffee. I usually prep it the night before so it’s ready to go in the morning.

Once it’s done steeping, separate the grounds from the liquid. This is where the French press really shines — just plunge, and you’re good to go. Now you’ve got a strong, smooth cold brew base ready to be transformed.

For the fun part, grab your cocktail shaker. Add one tablespoon of peanut butter powder, half a teaspoon of agave syrup, 150 ml (5 oz) of freshly made cold brew, and one ounce (30 ml) of almond milk. Don’t forget a handful of ice for that refreshing chill. Shake well and let the magic happen — this is where all the flavors blend into a smooth, energizing, and delicious drink.

To serve, fill a glass with ice and strain your mixture over the top. And there you have it — a vegan, dairy-free, and incredibly refreshing Peanut Butter Cold Brew. Whether you’re a coffee enthusiast, fitness buff, or just someone who loves trying new drinks, this recipe is sure to impress.
