Ingredients

For the keto salted caramel cream

1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon liquid allulose allulose or sweetener of choice, to taste*
1/2 teaspoon caramel extract you know, if not using actual caramel!
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons (15-min!) keto salted caramel *highly suggested*

For the vanilla cold brew

2 cups cold brew
1 tablespoon liquid allulose optional
2 teaspoons vanilla extract optional

Instructions

My top tip: this is a super duper easy recipe to whip up to taste! So take advantage and do little taste tests as you go along for sweetness.
Add heavy whipping cream, allulose (seriously, the liquid one is the best for drinks!) and a good pinch of salt to a medium bowl. Whisk (using an actual whisk or a hand mixer) until it just begins to thicken. Make sure you keep it pourable- you know, don't turn it into whipped cream!
Whisk in the room temp caramel, taste for sweetness (vip!) and set aside.
The original starbucks drink ("the og") also adds vanilla syrup to the actual cold brew, so feel free to add a touch of liquid allulose to yours and a couple teaspoons of vanilla extract (I like my cofee black, so I leave these out).
Pour your cold brew into a glass with ice, pour your salted caramel cream on top, and enjoy! p.s. I've also noticed that the cream holds quite well in the fridge for a day, just giving it a light whisk if need be.

Notes

The best sweeteners (for keto drinks!)

OK so sure, you can use a granulated sweetener if you don’t have anything else handy. Allulose and xylitol will dissolve completely into liquids with a little coaxing, but do note that erythritol has a tendency to stay slightly crunchy.

So trust me when I say that a liquid sweetener will work much better. This pure allulose is my absolute favorite to sweeten any type of beverage, with its biggest plus incidentally being no aftertaste whatsoever.
