Chef Emma’s Helpful Tips

  • Make It Ahead: You can prepare the pumpkin puree mixture a day in advance, and simply stir it into cold brew coffee when you’re ready to enjoy.
  • Storage Suggestions: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours, but I doubt there will be any left!
  • Substitutions: If you’re out of pumpkin spice syrup, you can create a simple version by mixing sugar with a dash of cinnamon, nutmeg, and all-spice.
  • Batch It: This recipe can easily be doubled for gathering with friends or family—just make it in a larger pitcher!
