Homemade Peppermint Coffee Creamer
Ahhh! I’m so excited to finally share this recipe! I made it too late in the year to share it last year, and it feels like I’ve been waiting FOREVER to finally be able to share it this year. This. Is. SO GOOD! I made more Homemade Peppermint Coffee Creamer after Christmas and drank it into January. And then I used up our leftover candy canes to make makeshift peppermint coffee after that. Seriously. Peppermint flavored coffee is so good! How did I not know about it until now?!
If you’re in need of a holiday pick me, this homemade peppermint coffee creamer will hit the spot. Hot peppermint coffee topped with whipped cream and a candy cane stirrer…. Mmmm… The perfect present-wrapping, Christmas dinner planning, all day shopping, tree decorating, festive companion!

January 18, 2017 at 11:00 amHow long is the life of the creamer? I am the only one at home who would be using it, and I would want to know how long it will last in the fridge before it needs to be replaced. Thank you!

May 6, 2019 at 11:15 amI go by the date on the milk/cream/half-and-half used to make it. It might be stable even a little longer because it was heated.
