Ingredients & Substitutions
This section explains how to choose the best ingredients for this sugar free peppermint mocha coffee creamer, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card below. (Use code WHOLESOMEYUM for 10% off, just for my readers!)
ChocZero Dark Chocolate Hazelnut Spread – Makes this coffee creamer thick and creamy without sugar (or even extra cocoa powder).Besti Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend – If you need to use a different keto sugar substitute, I recommend crystallized Besti or powdered allulose, as they will dissolve completely. See my sweeteners conversion chart for exact substitute amounts, but keep in mind that other alternatives besides these will not dissolve. Instead, the sweetener will either settle to the bottom or create a gritty texture. Heavy Cream – Using heavy cream in your peppermint mocha sugar free creamer gives the creamer a rich and silky texture. You could substitute this with coconut cream or full-fat coconut milk to make it a non-dairy creamer.Unsweetened Almond Milk – Used to thin out the creamer. You can use coconut milk beverage instead for a nut-free option as needed, or regular dairy milk.Peppermint Extract – Use the best quality extract you can find for the best minty flavor. This one is so good!

How Many Calories Are In A Sugar Free Peppermint Mocha Creamer?
This homemade sugar free peppermint mocha creamer contains 187 calories per serving and less than a gram of sugar. Compare that to a peppermint mocha at Starbucks, which contains 440 calories and a whopping 54 grams of sugar! For the perfect cup, I add 1/4 cup of creamer to 8 ounces of coffee — this fills an average 12-ounce coffee mug. The amount for you can vary depending on the potency of your extract and your preference, so start with less and adjust to taste.
Storage Instructions
Keep this peppermint mocha sugar free coffee creamer covered in the refrigerator for 7-10 days. It may get thick when cold, but will become liquid again when added to hot coffee (or bring to room temperature to use in iced coffee). Freezing is not recommended.
