If December had a flavor, this would be it. The Creamy Vegan Sugar Cookie Latte is warm, nostalgic, sweet in the softest way, and tastes like dipping a fresh sugar cookie into a creamy cup of coffee. It’s the perfect festive drink for cozy mornings, gift wrapping, holiday movie nights, or winding down after a snowy day.

Pinterest searches for sugar cookie latte, holiday coffee drinks, and cozy winter drinks have surged this month. People want café-style holiday drinks they can make at home without dairy, fancy equipment, or $7 price tags — and this recipe delivers exactly that vibe. It’s silky, warm, dessert-like, and visually stunning with whipped cream, sprinkles, and a cookie on the rim.

This is also one of the easiest drinks to style for Pinterest. The creamy beige color, golden lighting, whipped topping, and festive sprinkles create that “holiday magic” visual that performs extremely well across December.

Best part? Remove the holiday garnish and rename it “Vanilla Cookie Latte” — it instantly becomes evergreen for January, February, and cozy season in general. It’s warm, comforting, and endlessly customizable year-round.
