Love tiramisu and cold brew? This drink combines the rich flavors of the classic Italian dessert with smooth cold brew coffee. The cloud-like cold foam is infused with mascarpone, vanilla, and a hint of cocoa for that authentic tiramisu taste.This is my homemade version of the popular Tiramisu Cold Brew from Disneyland’s Troubadour Tavern
I made this recipe on one of those slow afternoons when I needed something that felt a little extra but not complicated. The kind of drink that makes you pause for a second, sip, and go, “Okay… maybe life isn’t that bad.” That’s exactly what this Tiramisu Cold Brew does; it makes ordinary moments feel soft and special.
Why You’ll Love This Drink
This isn’t just another fancy coffee; it’s the kind of drink that gets you. The smooth cold brew wakes you up, but the creamy mascarpone topping slows you down in the best way. It’s that little pocket of calm between all the chaos.
What makes Tiramisu Cold Brew so special is the balance. You get that deep, slightly bitter coffee base that hits like real life — then the sweet, velvety cream that reminds you good things always find their way back. It’s comfort in a cup, especially on those days when you just need a soft reminder that you can start again, one sip at a time.
This isn’t your ordinary cold brew! Here’s why you’ll fall in love with it:
- Dessert and drink in one: Combines classic tiramisu flavors with refreshing cold brew
- Make-ahead friendly: Cold brew and mascarpone cream can be prepared in advance
- Impressive presentation: Beautiful layers make it perfect for entertaining
- Easy As Can Be – All you need is about 10 minutes’ worth of prep time for the yummiest treat around!
Well, it’s okay to have a little bitterness, as long as you let the sweetness rise to the top. It’s not just coffee; it’s a whole vibe, a comforting pause in your day that says, “Hey, it’s okay. You’re doing fine.”
Plus, it looks beautiful enough to post (yes, it’s totally Instagram-worthy). The layers, the cocoa dusting, the aesthetic vibes — it’s giving the main character energy but in the calmest, coziest way possible.
Ingredients of Tiramisu Cold Brew
- Mascarpone Cheese: Mascarpone is light, buttery, and slightly sweet. When whipped into a cold foam, it mimics the iconic tiramisu filling perfectly. Don’t skip this!
- Heavy Cream: This gives the cold foam its rich, luscious texture. When frothed with mascarpone, it turns into the dreamiest whipped topping—basically coffee cloud heaven
- Vanilla Extract: Sweet, smooth, and floral, vanilla extract gives the latte its signature sweetness and brings out the creamy dessert-like flavor.
- Sweetened Condensed Milk: Milk is the base of your latte—think of it like the cake layer in tiramisu. I like using whole milk or oat milk for the creamiest texture, but any milk works. Using whole milk adds another layer of richness and creamy mouthfeel.
- Cold Brew: You need that rich, bold coffee flavor to cut through the creaminess. Espresso gives intensity without watering things down like drip coffee would.
How to Make Tiramisu Cold Brew
First, in a mixing bowl, whisk the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add mascarpone cheese, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract, then whisk again until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Next, fill a serving glass with ice cubes, then pour in the cold brew coffee until about three-quarters full. Spoon the mascarpone cream on top. Btw, here’s how to make cold brew;
- Cold brew is a type of coffee that’s made by steeping coarsely ground coffee beans in cold or room-temperature water for a long time — usually 12 to 16 hours. Instead of using hot water like traditional coffee, the slow extraction process gives cold brew its smooth, less acidic, and naturally sweet flavor.
- To make it; you mix coffee grounds with cold water. Let it steep slowly in the fridge or at room temperature.
- After steeping, you strain out the grounds, leaving behind a clean, concentrated coffee.
When your Cold brew is ready, now add an extra dollop of mascarpone cream if desired, then dust with cocoa powder for that classic tiramisu finish.
Finally, serve immediately and enjoy your Cold Brew Tiramisu!
