How to Make the Best Creamy Gingerbread Cashew Coffee

This creamy gingerbread cashew coffee is a festive, homemade alternative to expensive coffeehouse seasonal lattes. The magic happens in the blender when hot coffee meets raw cashews, molasses, and warm spices, transforming into a naturally creamy, foamy drink that captures all those cozy holiday flavors without the premium price tag.

Unlike traditional lattes that rely on milk for creaminess, this recipe uses raw cashews blended into the hot coffee to create a rich, velvety texture. The unsulphured molasses and warm spices—ginger and cinnamon—give it that quintessential gingerbread flavor that’s perfect for chilly mornings or festive gatherings.

The beauty of this recipe is its simplicity and customization. Whether you prefer it sweeter with a touch of agave or like the natural spice profile as-is, you can easily adjust it to suit your taste. Make a batch for breakfast, serve it at holiday gatherings, or enjoy it anytime you’re craving that warm, spiced coffee shop experience from your own home.

Ingredients

Gingerbread Cashew Coffee

Instructions

Preparation

  1. Carefully transfer hot coffee to blender. Add cashews, molasses, and spices. The cashews do not need to soak before blending—the hot coffee will take care of softening them so they blend up fine.
  2. Blend on high for a full 5 to 8 minutes, depending on the strength of your blender.
  3. Optional: add agave, or a dash of your preferred sweetener, to taste.

Notes

  • The hot coffee softens the raw cashews so no pre-soaking is needed.
  • Blending time varies by blender strength—use 5 minutes for high-power blenders, 8 minutes for standard ones.
  • Customize sweetness by adding agave or your preferred sweetener to taste.
