We can’t start our day without a good cup of coffee, maybe two or three, depending on how good or bad our previous night’s sleep was. We’ve tried almost every flavored creamer on the market and realized that when we finally found one we loved, we spent a lot of money on something we could quickly make ourselves. Luckily, we’ve figured out how to make homemade creamer in many flavors.
You can make several different flavored homemade creamers with just a few ingredient changes. You’ll be surprised how easy it is!
The idea is to get creative and create your own homemade creamer flavors! The possibilities are endless.
You can also adjust the ingredients based on how sweet you like your coffee. Do you love your creamer sweet? Use sweetened condensed milk and sweetened almond milk.
Prefer it to be less sweet; get unsweetened condensed milk and unflavored milk. I’ve found that I no longer need to add sugar to my coffee if my creamer is already sweet!
Here are some of our favorite homemade creamer flavors:
Chocolate Almond: 1 3/4 cups milk of your choice (almond milk, whole, fat-free, etc.) 14 oz condensed milk (sweetened or unsweetened) 2 tbsp chocolate syrup or cocoa powder 1/2 tsp almond extract
Chocolate Hazelnut: 1 3/4 cups milk of your choice (almond milk, whole, fat-free, etc.) 14 oz condensed milk (sweetened or unsweetened) 2 tbsp chocolate syrup or cocoa powder 1 tsp hazelnut extract 1 tsp vanilla extract
Almond Joy: 1 3/4 cups coconut milk 14 oz condensed milk (sweetened or unsweetened) 2 tbsp chocolate syrup or cocoa powder 1/2 tsp almond extract *If you love Almond Joy, try our ice cream pie!
Cinnamon: 1 3/4 cups milk of your choice (almond milk, whole, fat-free, etc.) 14 oz condensed milk (sweetened or unsweetened) 2 tsp cinnamon 2 tsp vanilla extract
Chocolate Caramel Coconut: 1 3/4 cups coconut milk 14 oz condensed milk (sweetened or unsweetened) 1 tbsp caramel sauce/topping 1 tbsp chocolate syrup or cocoa powder 1 tsp coconut extract
And some of our favorite holiday and fall flavors:
Pumpkin Spice: 1 3/4 cups milk of your choice (almond milk, whole, fat-free, etc.) 14 oz condensed milk (sweetened or unsweetened) 3 tbsp pumpkin puree 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice 1 tsp vanilla extract
Peppermint Mocha: 1 3/4 cups milk of your choice (almond milk, whole, fat-free, etc.) 14 oz condensed milk (sweetened or unsweetened) 2 tbsp chocolate syrup or cocoa powder 1 tsp peppermint extract
Eggnog: 1 3/4 cups milk of your choice (almond milk, whole, fat-free, etc.) 14 oz condensed milk (sweetened or unsweetened) 1 tsp nutmeg 2 tsp rum extract 1 tsp vanilla extract
Amaretto: 1 3/4 cups milk of your choice (almond milk, whole, fat-free, etc.) 14 oz condensed milk (sweetened or unsweetened) ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon almond extract
Once you create your homemade creamer, it can be stored in glass bottles (we reuse these bottles from drinks we pick up at the grocery store when we’re in a hurry). Although we go through creamer pretty quickly in our house, I recommend using a marker to write the expiration date on each bottle (I use the date from the milk we use).
Also, if you want to get fancy, you can get this adorable label maker on Amazon for less than $10 and create your own labels for each flavor!
Store in a bottle. Make sure to write milk expiration date on the containter for reference!

I'm so honored that you've found us! I'm Heather, a Mom of 3 who blogs about parenting, food, occasional travel and how I overcame my daily struggle with anxiety. I miss sleeping and rely on coffee and laughter to get me through the day. I hope you enjoy and visit often!
I write the expiration of the milk I used on the container, but honestly, they don’t last long in our house because we use creamer on a daily basis. The recipe yields 3.5 cups or 28oz. You can adjust based on the size of your container.

There’s no such thing as unsweetened condensed milk — that’s just evaporated milk.
Great…what about Sweet Cream ?
How long do these normally last in the refrigerator?

WouldI be able to can this creamer using the 30 minute water bath method?

I’m sorry, I’ve never done that before so I can’t say whether or not that would work.
Will never buy creamer again.
