This Homemade Pistachio Creamer is a rich and nutty addition to your coffee or tea, made from creamy half & half, sweetened with sugar, and infused with pistachio cream and a hint of almond extract. It's quick to prepare on the stovetop and provides a delightful homemade alternative to store-bought creamers.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups half & half
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tbsp pistachio cream
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • ¼ tsp almond extract

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a small saucepan, add the half & half, granulated sugar, pistachio cream, and heavy cream. Place the saucepan over medium-low heat.
  2. Heat and Whisk: Gently heat the mixture while whisking continuously until the sugar and pistachio cream have completely melted and the ingredients are fully combined, creating a smooth creamer base.
  3. Add Almond Extract: Remove the saucepan from the heat. Whisk in the almond extract thoroughly to infuse a subtle nutty flavor that complements the pistachio.
  4. Cool and Store: Allow the creamer to cool at room temperature for about 15 minutes. Then transfer it to an airtight container like a mason jar. Store the creamer in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, shaking well before each use.

Notes

  • Use high-quality pistachio cream for the best flavor and smooth texture.
  • Make sure to whisk continuously while heating to prevent the mixture from scorching.
  • This creamer is delicious in both hot and iced coffee or tea.
  • Store in the refrigerator and use within 2 weeks for freshness.
  • If a thinner consistency is desired, adjust by adding more half & half.
