7 Best Sugar Free Coffee Creamers

Are you looking for a healthy coffee creamer that matches your lifestyle? Here, we take a look at some of the best sugar free coffee creamers to choose from.

While I do love a cup of black coffee, my favorite way to drink my morning Joe is with a generous splash of cream. The right creamer gives coffee the perfect texture and enhances the flavor to perfection!

Due both to the cost and certain dietary restrictions, we decided to stop adding dairy cream to our coffees. So, we needed to find a new coffee creamer that we could feel our best about switching to, but a lot of the coffee creamers available on the market today are packed with added sugar. I decided to look into some of the best sugar-free coffee creamers instead.

What To Look For In A Sugar-Free Coffee Creamer

The most important thing to look for in a sugar-free coffee creamer is the ingredients. Dairy cream is not a complicated product – it is just the cream from cow’s milk, nothing else.

Creamers, on the other hand, can be made from a wide array of ingredients. Sugar-free creamers are often full of strange, artificial ingredients that try to replicate the sweet taste of sugar. I want to make sure my sugar-free coffee creamer is full of ingredients I feel great about drinking!

Next, I consider the price. I love my morning cup of coffee, and I am willing to spend the money to make sure that I get a great taste. That being said, I like to try to find an option that meets my needs while also keeping my budget low.

How To Pick The Best Sugar-Free Coffee Creamer

The best coffee creamer for you is going to depend on your lifestyle and dietary restrictions. When I was a little kid, I used to drink my parents’ Nestle Coffee-Mate French vanilla creamer. It turns out, though, that Coffee-Mate is a mixture of water, soybean oil, and canola oil, plus a mixture of sugars and artificial flavors. 

While I don’t keep to a strict keto or paleo diet, I do prefer buying more natural ingredients. There are lots of great products used to make creamers, such as coconut cream, oat milk, and almond milk. It is important to make sure the base of your coffee creamer matches up with your dietary lifestyle. Check out our guide on how to use Coffee Mate.

Since we are looking for great sugar-free coffee creamers, it is also important to consider what ingredients were used to replace the sugar. Many sugar-free beverages use additives like aspartame and sucralose to mimic the sweet taste of sugar, but these additives may not be healthy. It is, thus, important to consider what sweetener was used in our creamer.

Finally, it is important to pick something within your budget. Drinking coffee in the morning shouldn’t give you financial anxiety. There are lots of great choices on the market, ranging from budget-friendly to luxury offerings.

It is good to note that the prices of creamers can vary based on where you purchase them from.

Califia Better Half

One of the best sugar-free coffee creamers available is Califia’s Better Half. This coffee creamer is made with equal parts coconut milk and almond milk. It is comparable in price to heavy cream and much cheaper than high-quality, organic dairy cream.

Califia’s Better Half is sweetened with monk fruit juice. Monk fruit has been a staple of traditional Chinese medicine and cuisine for centuries.

While the fruit does contain sugar, the intense sweetness of monk fruit is derived from other compounds in the fruit, so very little monk fruit juice is needed to match the sweetness of sugar. As a result, the amount of monk fruit juice needed to get the desired sweetness has virtually no sugar in it. Plus, monk fruit has many health benefits, including antioxidant properties.

Plus, Califia’s Better Half is great if you want a dairy-free alternative for baking. You can simply replace equal parts of half-and-half with Califia’s Better Half in any recipe.

Prymal Butter Pecan Coffee Creamer

While Prymal offers many coffee creamer flavors, the Butter Pecan creamer takes the cake! This is a perfect choice for anyone who loves to enhance their coffee with a fun flavor.

Prymal got started by trying to make products that would allow people with diabetes to enjoy their morning coffee without sugar. The company sells powdered creamers that are not only friendly for diabetics but are perfect for folks on a keto or a paleo diet too.

Prymal is made with coconut and its “KetoSweet” blend, which features erythritol, chicory root, monk fruit, and stevia. This provides a sweet kick without the sugar. You might find our explainer on do coffee creamers need to be refrigerated helpful.

Bulletproof Hazelnut Creamer

Bulletproof Coffee’s Hazelnut Coffee Creamer is an excellent sugar-free creamer to consider. Bulletproof Coffee is famous for adding butter to coffee. This powdered creamer blends grass-fed butter with MCT oil derived from coconuts. 

This creamer is sweetened with stevia extract. The brand also offers several flavors, including French vanilla and pumpkin spice. The hazelnut flavor is my favorite!

Rasa Creme De La Creamer

Rasa’s Creme de la Creamer is one of the best sugar-free, dairy-free creamers available. With an oat milk and coconut milk base, this blend also features several adaptogens like tremella mushrooms and ginseng.

Technically, the oat milk does introduce a bit of sugar into this creamer, so you can expect about one gram of sugar in a full serving. So, if your goal is to have a truly sugar-free creamer, this one may not be the choice for you.

Rasa sells a frother to help mix the creamer into your coffee – this is a necessary purchase as the creamer does not blend as easily as other creamers. As well, many customers note that you need more than the suggested serving to get the desired flavor.

That being said, this creamer is delicious and has a wonderful texture once blended. Learn more in our review of the best mushroom coffee brands.

Skull Dust Keto Collagen Coffee Creamer

Skull Dust Keto Collagen Coffee Creamer is a bit different than the other items on this list because it has some coffee in it too! This creamer can either be added directly to hot water, or it can be added to coffee to get that extra boost of caffeine.

Skull Dust creamer is made with grass-fed collagen, grass-fed ghee, and turmeric. The collagen provides a boost of protein, and the ghee provides a creaminess. This is not the choice for vegetarians and vegans.

The brand offers several flavors, including vanilla mocha, Italian sweet cream, and hazelnut. I used to love the Coffee-Mate Italian sweet cream, so this flavor is nostalgic for me!

Finally, it is a touch more expensive than other powdered creamers on this list. However, this product also contains coffee, so it may be worthwhile to try using it instead of coffee altogether – particularly if you would like to cut back on your caffeine intake.

Kitu Super Coffee Creamer

The Kitu Super Coffee Creamer is an excellent choice for people who enjoy dairy cream but would like a lactose-free and sugar-free option. Kitu blends together cream, milk protein isolate, and MCT oil, sweetened with monk fruit. The company offers several flavors, though vanilla is by far the most popular.

This creamer is shelf-stable, so you can buy it in bulk to save a bit more money. Reviews note that the creamer can get clumpy in hot coffee, but it just needs to be blended well, and it tastes delicious.

Nestlé Coffee Mate Sugar-Free French Vanilla

Coffee Mate is one of the best-known coffee creamer brands for a reason. If you’re reducing your sugar intake, you don’t have to say goodbye; the brand’s sugar-free French Vanilla creamer tastes just as good as the original.

There are only 15 calories per teaspoon of creamer, and one bottle can last for more than 100 cups of coffee. If you don’t like powdered creamers, Coffee Mate also offers sugar-free liquid versions.

Testing Criteria

All the products were judged based on the quality of the ingredients and on their respective prices. All creamers included in this list are made with high-quality ingredients.
