8 Starbucks Drinks You Can Make At Home

Spending a lot of money for your favorite cult Starbucks drink? Well, believe it or not you can make most of your favorite drinks at home. In no particular order, here’s 8 Starbucks drinks you can make at home!

1. Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Brew

Now this one is my personal favorite, the vanilla sweet cream cold brew. When I mean favorite, I mean I drink at least one of these everyday. You can make this one in a variety of ways with all kinds of different ingredients. The easiest way I’ve found to make this is with Starbuck’s cold brew coffee, that you can buy at any grocery store, half and half, a vanilla syrup, and of course ice. Now you can make it as sweet, or not, as you’d like. To make it sweeter, simply add more pumps of your vanilla syrup. This Starbucks drink is great year round, especially if your an iced coffee connoisseur. Make it at home, and you’ve just created an unlimited supply of your favorite coffee! This recipe is more a trial and error sort of situation. No exact measurements, just make to taste!

2. Iced Caramel Macchiato

This next Starbuck’s cult favorite is an iced caramel macchiato. All you need for this one is 2 shots of espresso, vanilla syrup, caramel syrup, and milk. Now think of it this way, this coffee can easily be made hot too if you’d prefer, just use hot espresso instead of iced. You’re going to want to put everything besides the caramel sauce in the cup, and mix until blended. Add whipped cream, if desired, and caramel sauce to taste! Boom, you made yourself the classic Starbuck’s iced caramel macchiato at home! This Starbucks drink can be made both hot or iced, and if you’re a caramel lover, this one’s for you.

3. The Pink Drink

Taking a break from the coffee drinks for the moment, we have the viral Starbucks pink drink! The pink drink is a little more complicated than the previous coffee drinks you can make at home because it requires more ingredients. To make this one you’ll need blackberries, freeze dried strawberries, fresh strawberries, coconut milk, sugar, white grape juice, green coffee bean powder and ice. The blend of these ingredients makes for the perfect pink drink at home! You can find the exact measurements and original recipe here by Beauty and the Beets.

4. Passion Tea Lemonade

Following along the no coffee trend, this next Starbucks cult favorite is the passion tea lemonade. This drink is the perfect combination of lemonade and tea to quench your thirst in the hot summer heat. For this drink you’ll need Tazo passion tea bags, water, lemonade, sugar, and vanilla. This drink is a go to when you want Starbucks but aren’t necessarily feeling coffee. The tea provides you with caffeine, while the lemonade provides you with the sweetness. Starbucks really hit this one out of the park, creating the perfect alternative to caffeine on a hot day. For the full recipe by Frugal Coupon Living, click here!
