... Read moreHey coffee lovers! I just have to share my latest obsession that's been making my summers absolutely delicious: the Peanut Butter Dunkalatte! Seriously, I rated it a 10/10, and once you try it, you'll understand why. It's the perfect blend of rich coffee and creamy peanut butter, topped with the fluffiest marshmallow cold foam. It's truly a 'coffee special Summer Drink' that feels like a treat every single time. You've probably seen variations of these incredible layered iced coffees, but the peanut butter twist takes it to a whole new level. For those of you wondering how to whip up this magic at home, you're in luck! I've perfected my own recipe, and it's surprisingly simple. My 10/10 Peanut Butter Dunkalatte Recipe (Yields 1 serving) Ingredients: 2 shots (about 2 oz) freshly brewed espresso, cooled 6-8 oz coffee milk (I usually use my favorite dairy or non-dairy milk mixed with a hint of coffee syrup, or just regular milk if you prefer less coffee flavor in the milk itself) 1-2 tbsp peanut butter syrup (adjust to your sweetness preference) Ice cubes For the Marshmallow Cold Foam: 1/4 cup heavy cream (or a dairy-free alternative like coconut cream) 1 tbsp marshmallow fluff or 1/2 tsp vanilla extract + 1/2 tsp sugar A tiny splash of milk (optional, for consistency) Drizzle of peanut butter syrup for garnish (optional) Instructions: Prepare your espresso: Brew two shots of your favorite espresso and let it cool slightly. You can also use strong cold brew concentrate if you don't have an espresso machine. Mix the coffee milk: In your serving glass, combine your chosen coffee milk and the peanut butter syrup. Stir well until the syrup is fully incorporated. Add ice: Fill your glass generously with ice cubes. Pour espresso: Carefully pour the cooled espresso over the ice and milk mixture. You'll start to see those beautiful layers form! Make the Marshmallow Cold Foam: In a separate small bowl or frother, combine the heavy cream, marshmallow fluff (or vanilla/sugar alternative), and optional milk. Use a hand frother, milk frother, or even a whisk to froth until it's thick, airy, and spoonable. If you want a more pronounced peanut butter flavor in your foam, add a tiny bit of peanut butter syrup to the cream before frothing. Layer the foam: Gently spoon the rich marshmallow cold foam on top of your layered coffee drink. Garnish and Serve: For an extra touch, drizzle a little more peanut butter syrup over the cold foam. Grab a straw, stir, and enjoy your amazing homemade Peanut Butter Dunkalatte! Now, I know many of you are also curious about the Peanut Butter Dunkalatte calories. It's tricky to give an exact number because it really depends on the specific ingredients you use. However, I can give you a rough estimate and some tips to adjust it! Espresso: Almost negligible, usually under 5 calories per shot. Coffee Milk: This is where it varies most. If you use whole milk, 6-8 oz could be around 100-150 calories. Skim milk would be less, around 60-80 calories. Plant-based milks like almond or oat can range from 30-130 calories depending on whether they are sweetened or not. Peanut Butter Syrup: This is a sugar and flavor powerhouse. A tablespoon can easily add 50-80 calories. If you use two tablespoons, double that! Marshmallow Cold Foam: Heavy cream is calorie-dense. 1/4 cup of heavy cream is about 100-120 calories. Marshmallow fluff adds sugar and calories (around 20-30 per tablespoon). Rough Estimate: Combining these, a Peanut Butter Dunkalatte made with whole milk, two shots of espresso, two tablespoons of peanut butter syrup, and a generous marshmallow cold foam could easily be in the 300-450 calorie range. Tips to reduce calories: Opt for skim milk or unsweetened almond milk. Use sugar-free peanut butter syrup. Reduce the amount of peanut butter syrup or marshmallow fluff. Make your cold foam with a lighter milk alternative and less sweetener. Despite the calorie count (which can totally be adjusted!), this drink is an absolute treat and well worth it. The blend of rich espresso, creamy coffee milk, and that delightful peanut butter marshmallow cold foam creates a symphony of flavors that just screams summer relaxation. Give this recipe a try, and let me know what you think! I'm confident it'll become a new favorite for you too!
